Abstract: The invention provides a rotation sensor enabling simplification of manufacturing process, such as an inspection step, while maintaining measurement accuracy of the rotation sensor. Lead frames of a rotation sensor have positioning sections which contact a side surface section of a case and, in this state of contact, keep the insertion depth dimension of a magnetism detection unit in the internal space of the case to a prescribed dimension; a flange lower flat surface of a flange section is provided further towards the case bottom surface side than a flange lower flat surface of a ring-shaped rib, a portion of the outer peripheral section of the case and the ring-shaped rib are exposed in a ring shape from an exterior molding section, and the case is provided with a plurality of projections along the inner side surface of the case which constitutes the internal space.

Abstract: To obtain a rotation sensor capable of reducing manufacturing cost, provided is a rotation sensor including: a case including: a bottom surface portion; a side surface portion; and an opening; a pair of lead frames each including a distal end inserted into the case through the opening; a magnetic detection section arranged inside the case, and configured to detect a change in magnetic field caused by a magnetic body; and a holder surrounding the magnetic detection section in cooperation with the case, the holder including: a holder main body, which has an outer peripheral surface formed along an inner peripheral surface of the side surface portion and is configured to sandwich the pair of lead frames between the outer peripheral surface and the side surface portion; and a rib formed along a forming portion of the lead frame so as to be brought into contact with the forming portion.
