Abstract: A position detector includes a Hall element that detects a magnetic flux density and a temperature detection element that detects the temperature of the Hall element. In a rotation angle calculation process, a temperature correction value a is calculated by substituting a detection temperature t of the temperature detection element and a reference maximum voltage V0 at a reference temperature t0 for a=V0×k (t?t0). Next, a correction maximum voltage Vt is calculated by substituting the temperature correction value a for a temperature characteristic formula of Vt=V0+a. Further, a rotation angle ? of a magnet relative to the Hall element is calculated by substituting an output voltage VH of the Hall element and the correction maximum voltage Vt for ?=sin?1 (VH/Vt). Since the correction maximum voltage Vt is corrected according to the temperature, the rotation angle is accurately detected.

The rotation angle calculator calculates a relative rotation angle of the magnetic generator with respect to the magnetic detector based on a voltage output from the magnetic detector and a relational expression of ?=sin?1((VH?c)/V0)?b. In the relational expression, the relative rotation angle is defined as ?, the voltage output from the magnetic detector is defined as VH, a true maximum value of the voltage output from the magnetic detector is defined as V0, a first true correction value is defined as b, and a second true correction value is defined as c.

A Hall IC calculates and outputs an output voltage, which corresponds to a relative rotational angle between the permanent magnets and the magnetism sensing element, based on the magnetic force detection value outputted by the magnetism sensing element. The Hall IC calculates the output voltage as V2=k×arcsin(V1/(VM+?))+Voffset, in which V1, V2, VM, k, ? and Voffset indicate the magnetic force detection value, the output voltage, a maximum value of the magnetic force detection value, a gain, a predetermined value and a predetermined offset value.

Abstract: A physical quantity detection apparatus includes a signal output section, a correction value calculation section, and a processing section. The signal output section outputs signals in accordance with a change in physical quantity of a detected object. The correction value calculation section calculates a correction value. The processing section corrects values based on actual output values of the signal output section with the correction value, calculates physical quantities of the detected object based on corrected values, and outputs calculated physical quantities. The correction value calculation section calculates the correction value based on primary error amounts that are differences between post-interpolation actual output values calculated by executing a linear function interpolation process to the values based on the actual output values within a predetermined physical quantity range and the values based on the actual output values corresponding to the post-interpolation actual output values.

Abstract: In a position detector for detecting a position of a detection body, a signal processing circuit processes a signal outputted from a magnetic field detection element. A first storage circuit stores the signal outputted from the magnetic field detection element and outputs a signal to an external device through an output circuit in a normal operation mode. A second storage circuit stores an output value of the first storage circuit. When a malfunction determination circuit determines an instantaneous power interruption mode, a signal route changing circuit prevents a signal transmission between the first storage circuit and the second storage circuit and a signal transmission between the first storage circuit and the output circuit, prevents the second storage circuit from updating data for a certain period of time, and permits the second storage circuit in which updating is prevented to output a signal to the output circuit.

The parallel terminal portions are electrically connected to each other through an electric element. The resin part supporting the parallel terminal portions is made of non-conductive resin material mixed with non-conductive reinforced fibers of which thermal expansion coefficient is smaller than that of the non-conductive resin material. An extending direction of the parallel terminal portion is referred to as a longitudinal direction and a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction is referred to as a perpendicular direction. The non-conductive reinforced fibers have a fiber direction which is substantially the same as the perpendicular direction.
