When an external force acts on the first piezoelectric body, the first piezoelectric sensor generates a first voltage, and the second piezoelectric sensor generates a second voltage having a voltage different in polarity from the first voltage. The first inner conductor is electrically connected to one differential input terminal. The second inner conductor is electrically connected to the other differential input terminal. The differential signal forming unit forms a differential signal based on a first signal input to the one differential input terminal and a second signal input to the other differential input terminal.
