Zusammenfassung: | PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a magnetic measuring device having a plurality of magnetic sensors in which circuit size of its ΔΣ (delta-sigma) type ADC (Analog-to-Digital conversion apparatus) can be adjusted. SOLUTION: A ΔΣ modulator 22 in this device is delta-sigma modulated by input of sensor signal from one of the plurality of magnetic sensors 8 switched with prescribed input switching cycles to be selected. A digital filter 24 generates measurement data based on the data oversampled at cycle T by the ΔΣ modulator 22. The digital filter 24 has a counter 34. For the selected magnetic sensor 8, this counter 34 accumulates the data input every cycle T to generate and output measurement data, while resetting any counted value for this magnetic sensor 8 to newly start accumulation for the next magnetic sensor 8 to be selected then.
