An inductive sensor or detector includes as its sensitive element, preferably defining a front working plane of the sensor, a coil system forming an air-core transformer arrangement with a primary coil or winding (2) and a secondary coil or winding (3). The primary coil or winding of the system is associated with a capacitive component (4) in order to constitute a LC oscillating circuit whose oscillation is sustained by an adapted generator (5) in the form of an operational amplifier (6) and an associated resistance arrangement (R, R5, R13). The sensor also includes a signal processing circuit, for example signal adding (8), amplifying, converting (9) and/or evaluating circuits (10), fed by at least one signal provided by at least one component of the coil system. The inductive sensor comprises a direct or indirect feedback line (11) from the secondary coil or winding (3) to the input of the operational amplifier (6) of the generator (5).
