MAGNETIC SENSOR, MAGNETIC FIELD SENSING METHOD, SEMAGNETIC RECORDING HEAD, AND MAGNETIC MEMORY DEVICE

摘要

A magnetic sensor includes a magnetoresistance element having a peak of a thermal fluctuation strength of magnetization under a magnetic field having a certain frequency, a frequency filter connected to the magnetoresistance element and having its transmittance decreased or increased in substantially the frequency of the magnetic field to output a signal corresponding substantially to the peak of the thermal fluctuation strength of magnetization, and a detector connected to the frequency filter to detect the magnetic field based on the signal of the frequency filter.
