Interim Financial Information	NOTE 2. INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION
	The accompanying unaudited financial statements of NVE Corporation are prepared consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements. Although we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, it is suggested that these unaudited financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes included in our latest annual financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014. The results of operations for the quarter or nine months ended December 31, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year ending March 31, 2015.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements	NOTE 3. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
	In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standard Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification 605, Revenue Recognition. ASU 2014-09 is based on the principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. It also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. ASU 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period, which will be our first quarter of fiscal 2018. We have not yet evaluated the impact of ASU 2014-09 on our financial statements.

Net Income Per Share [Abstract]
Net Income Per Share	NOTE 4. NET INCOME PER SHARE
	Net income per basic share is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares issued and outstanding during each period. Net income per diluted share amounts assume conversion, exercise or issuance of all potential common stock instruments (stock options and warrants). Stock options totaling 4,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2014 were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the exercise prices of the options were greater than the market price of the common stock and are considered anti-dilutive. The following table reflects the components of common shares outstanding:
		Quarter Ended Dec. 31
		2014	2013
	Weighted average common shares outstanding basic	4,857,953	4,842,565

	Gross unrealized losses totaled $102,420 as of December 31, 2014, and were attributed to seven corporate bonds and one municipal bond out of a portfolio of 35 bonds. The gross unrealized losses were due to market-price decreases and rating downgrades after the bonds were purchased.
	All of the bonds we held had investment-grade credit ratings by Moodys or Standard and Poors. For each bond with an unrealized loss, we expect to recover the entire cost basis of each security based on our consideration of factors including their credit ratings, the underlying ratings of insured bonds, and historical default rates for securities of comparable credit rating.
	Three corporate bonds, with a total fair market value of $8,382,167, had been in continuous unrealized loss positions for 12 months or greater. For these securities, we also considered the severity of unrealized losses, which was less than 2% of adjusted cost for each security.
	Because we expect to recover the cost basis of investments held, we do not consider any of our marketable securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2014.

	Stock-based compensation expense was $58,960 for the first nine months of fiscal 2015, and $53,200 for the first nine months of fiscal 2014. Stock-based compensation expenses for the nine months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 were due to the issuance of automatic stock options to our non-employee directors on their reelection to our Board. We calculate the share-based compensation expense using the Black-Scholes standard option-pricing model.

Income Taxes [Abstract]
Income Taxes	NOTE 8. INCOME TAXES
	Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.
	We had no unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2014 or March 31, 2014, and we do not expect any significant unrecognized tax benefits within 12 months of the reporting date. We recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. As of December 31, 2014 we had no accrued interest related to uncertain tax positions. The tax years 1999 through 2013 remain open to examination by the major taxing jurisdictions to which we are subject.

Fair Value Measurements [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
	Generally accepted accounting principles establish a framework for measuring fair value, provide a definition of fair value and prescribe required disclosures about fair-value measurements. Generally accepted accounting principles define fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability. Fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined using assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. Generally accepted accounting principles utilize a valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The categories within the valuation hierarchy are described as follows:
	Level 1 Financial instruments with quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Our Level 1 financial instruments consist of publicly-traded marketable corporate debt securities, which are classified as available-for-sale. On the balance sheets, these securities are included in Marketable securities, short term and Marketable securities, long term. The fair value of our Level 1 marketable securities was $92,963,032 at December 31, 2014 and $89,934,059 at March 31, 2014.
	Level 2 Financial instruments with quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities. Level 2 fair value measurements are determined using either prices for similar instruments or inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable, such as interest rates. Our Level 2 financial instruments consist of municipal debt securities, which are classified as available-for-sale. On the balance sheets, these securities are included in Marketable securities, short term and Marketable securities, long term. We held one Level 2 marketable security at December 31, 2014, with a fair value of $1,393,252. The fair value of our Level 2 marketable securities was $4,448,342 at March 31, 2014.
	Level 3 Inputs to the fair value measurement are unobservable inputs or valuation techniques. We do not have any financial assets or liabilities being measured at fair value that are classified as Level 3 financial instruments.
