Abstract
An angle detection device including: an angle sensor AGSE outputting first and second sine wave signals SINWS1, SINWS2 having phases that are different from each other by 90 degrees in accordance with rotation of a detection target; an angle calculator calculating an angle signal corresponding to a rotation angle of the detection target based on SINWS1 and SINWS2; and an angle sensor AGSE abnormality determiner ASAD determining an abnormality of AGSE based on SINWS1 and SINWS2. The ASAD includes: an amplitude signal calculator calculating an amplitude signal MALS based on a square root of a sum of squares of SINWS1 and SINWS2; a first angle signal ANGS1 calculation processor calculating ANGS1 based on SINWS1 and MALS; a second angle signal ANGS2 calculation processor calculating ANGS2 based on SINWS2 and MALS; and an abnormality determination processor determining the abnormality of AGSE based on an error between ANGS1 and ANGS2.
