Abstract:
An angle detection device which includes multiple sensors to output multiple sinusoidal signals having different phases according to the rotation angle of a rotating body; a rotation calculation device to detect the rotation angle based on the multiple sinusoidal signals and detect an amplitude of the multiple sinusoidal signals to output the amplitude of the multiple sinusoidal signals as amplitude signal; and an amplitude comparison device to compare the amplitude signal with a predetermined amplitude target value and output an amplitude error signal indicating the comparison result; wherein the error of amplitude of the multiple sinusoidal signals is corrected by increasing or decreasing a drive input of a sensor driving unit based on the amplitude error signal.
