Sensor system, sensor module, and method of mounting sensor system

A sensor system comprising:

• a physical quantity distribution generation source configured to generate a distribution of a physical quantity;
• and
• a plurality of sensor packages including respective sensor chips configured to detect the physical quantity,
• a chip center-to-center distance between central positions of the respective sensor chips being shorter than a package center-to-center distance between central positions of the respective sensor packages in a plane including the sensor packages, and
• distances from a central position of the distribution of the physical quantity to the central positions of the respective sensor chips being substantially equal to each other in the plane including the sensor packages.

A sensor module comprising:

• a first sensor package including a first sensor chip configured to detect a physical quantity;
• and
• a second sensor package including a second sensor chip configured to detect the physical quantity,
• a central position of the first sensor chip being shifted in a direction from a central position of the first sensor package toward a central position of a distribution of the physical quantity, and a central position of the second sensor chip being shifted in a direction from a central position of the second sensor package toward the central position of the distribution of the physical quantity, in a plane including the first sensor package and the second sensor package, and
• a distance from the central position of the distribution of the physical quantity to the central position of the first sensor chip and a distance from the central position of the distribution of the physical quantity to the central position of the second sensor chip being substantially equal to each other in the plane including the first sensor package and the second sensor package.
