Abstract
A rotation angle detection device includes: a magnetic field generation portion that generates a magnetic field; and a first magnetism detection element and a second magnetism detection element disposed to have an angle of 90° therebetween in a rotation direction of the detection target and to rotate relative to the magnetism generation portion. The first magnetism detection element outputs a first output signal, and the second magnetism detection element outputs a second output signal. An amplitude shift correction circuit matches amplitudes of the first output signal and the second output signal which differ in phase by 90° from each other. A rotation angle computation circuit connected to the amplitude shift correction circuit computes and outputs a rotation angle of a detection target based on the first output signal and the second output signal having matched amplitudes.
