Abstract
Provided is a magnetic rotation-angle detector that includes a disk-shaped magnet that is magnetized so as to change magnetic poles n times per rotation (where n is an integer equal to or larger than 1); a magnetic-body slit plate that is rotated together with the magnet, where a part having a high magnetic flux permeability and a part having a low magnetic flux permeability are alternately and repeatedly arranged thereon so as to change the magnetic flux permeability m times per rotation (where m is an integer equal to or larger than 2 and m>n); a magnetic sensor that detects magnetism from the magnet when the magnet has passed by through the magnetic-body slit plate; and a calculation unit that obtains the rotation angle of the magnet from the output from the magnetic sensor.
