Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a rotation sensor comprising the steps of:(a) providing an insert conductor having a predetermined shape and having at least a connector terminal and a conversion device terminal;(b) insert-molding said insert conductor in a resin base such that at least said connector terminal and said conversion device terminal of said insert conductor remain exposed from said resin base and such that a surface mount connector terminal remains exposed from said resin base at a predetermined position;(c) molding a resin connector part such that said resin connector part encircles said connector terminal, wherein said steps (b) and (c) are performed at different times;(d) connecting a magnetoelectric conversion device to said conversion device terminal of said insert conductor;(e) providing positioning parts at a tip of said resin base;(f) sandwiching said magnetoelectric conversion device between said positioning parts to securely hold said magnetoelectric conversion device; and(g) mounting a surface mount electronic component on said surface mount connector terminal at said predetermined position.
