Abstract
To reduce the error in a rotational angle detected by a rotational angle detection apparatus, provided is a rotational angle detection apparatus that detects a rotational angle of a magnetic field generation source, including a magnetic field detection apparatus that detects magnetic field components in at least two directions, and outputs resulting detection data; a correction value calculating section that calculates correction values for correcting an angle error of the rotational angle, based on a steady-state error that does not depend on rotation of the magnetic field generation source; and an angle computing section that calculates the rotational angle of the magnetic field generation source based on the detection data and the correction values, and outputs an angle signal indicating the rotational angle.
