Abstract
Disclosed herein is a magnetic sensor module that includes a support body, a magnetic sensor fixed to the support body, a first circuit board fixed to the support body and connected to the magnetic sensor, a connection member fixed to the first circuit board, and a second circuit board fixed to the first circuit board through the connection member and connected to the magnetic sensor through the connection member and the first circuit board. The connection member supports the second circuit board so as to form a space between the first circuit board and the second circuit board.
