A low-cost current sensor suitable for mass production and a manufacturing method thereof are provided. The current sensor is small with high sensitivity and can be packaged in a standard assembly line which is normally used when an integrated circuit is manufactured. Further, it is possible to obtain a sufficient shielding effect against a disturbance flux without degrading the detecting sensitivity of a flux. A first magnetic material 50 is bonded to the lower part of a current conductor 22C. The first magnetic material 50 has the function of converging and amplifying a flux 3 generated by thecurrent to be measured. A second magnetic material 51 is bonded above a magnetic sensor chip 20. The second magnetic material 51 has a shielding function against a disturbance flux entering from the outside. <IMAGE> |
