A giant stress-impedance (GSI) effect with the strain-gauge factor more than 1200 was found in negative magnetostrictive amorphous CoSiB wires of 30-/spl mu/m diameter magnetized with a high frequency current or a sharp pulse current. A sensitive stress sensor is constructed using a CMOS IC multivibrator circuit in which the amorphous wire is magnetized with a sharp pulse train current. The amorphous wire GSI sensor will be applied for detection of such as pressure, tension, stream speed for liquid and gases and mechano-cardiogram with the sensitivity of 5-6 times higher than that of the semiconductor stress sensors utilizing the piezo-resistance effect showing a gauge factor of about 200.
