Abstract
Non-contact type Hall ICs detecting an rotation angle of a throttle valve, a stator core strengthening a magnetic field around the Hall ICs, a lead frame connecting the Hall ICs to an outside ECU are integrated in a sensor cover by resin molding. Thus, the Hall ICs, the stator core, and the lead frame are accurately positioned in the sensor cover. As a result, the Hall ICs are accurately positioned with respect to a permanent magnet disposed in a shaft side of the throttle valve, thereby improving an accuracy of detecting the rotation angle of the throttle valve.
