<p>A magnetic detector for detecting the magnetic field from a magnetic field generating substance (M) includes an even number of saturable coils (L1-L4) which are aligned on a straight line. The distance between adjacent coils (L1,L3) is at least equal to, or larger than the width of the magnetic field generating substance (M). The saturable coils (L1-L4) are separated into at least two pairs (L1,L3; L2,L4). A high frequency oscillator (OSC) supplies a high frequency voltage through resistors (RS1,RS2) to each pair of saturable coils (L1,L3;L2,L4). A circuit, which is provided for rectifying the voltages generated across the resistors (RS1,RS2), is such that the magnetic detector generates a voltage having a substantially linear portion when the magnetic field generating substance is displaced over an interval wider than the width thereof relative to the saturable coils.</p> |
