ABSTRACT:
A magnetostrictive torque sensor includes a rotating shaft that is rotated by an applied torque, magnetostrictive films formed around the entire circumferential periphery of a surface of the rotating shaft in at least one location, sensor coils for sensing a change in impedance of the magnetostrictive films, and a torque calculation unit for calculating the torque applied to the rotating shaft on the basis of a signal relating to the change in impedance outputted from the sensor coils. In this magnetostrictive torque sensor, a width of the magnetostrictive films in the axial direction of the rotating shaft and a width of the sensor coils in the axial direction of the rotating shaft are set so as to fulfill the relationship 1<(W1/W2)<1.35.
