MOVING OBJECT DETECTION APPARATUS

A moving object detection apparatus includes a current mirror circuit including first and second transistors connected in parallel between a power source and ground and having gates connected to a ground-side terminal of the first transistor, first and second magnetoresistive elements having pin layers and respectively arranged between the first and second transistors and the ground, a constant voltage circuit, a voltage output circuit having third and fourth transistors respectively arranged between the first and second transistors and the first and second magnetoresistive elements and respectively applying constant voltages to the first and second magnetoresistive elements based on output of the constant voltage circuit when the output of the constant voltage circuit is applied to gates of the third and fourth transistors, and a fifth transistor arranged between the second and fourth transistors to operate according to a potential of a power-source-side terminal of the fourth transistor.
