Abstract
An improved heating resistor type air flow measurement apparatus which can operate properly even when the noises are produced by a large surge current, and even when the air flow measurement apparatus is made of plastic member. The apparatus has a heating resistor arranged in the main air passage, a temperature-sensitive resistor and a flow measurement circuit for processing signals from their resistors. Inductors are provided between these resistors to prevent noise invasion into the flow measurement circuit.
