Patent ID: 10184806

Abstract:
A rotation angle detection device includes resolvers 2a and 2b for detecting the rotation angle of a rotating body, and a signal processing circuit 10 for processing the output signals of the resolvers. The signal processing circuit 10 includes a detection signal processing section 30 for obtaining, from the output signals of the resolvers, electrical angle signals A1 and A2 corresponding to the electrical angles of the resolvers, and an abnormality detection section 50 capable of detecting an abnormality of the input signal from at least one of the resolvers. The abnormality detection section 50 performs comparison determination processing for comparing the electrical angle signal A1 and the electrical angle signal A2 obtained from the resolvers at the same time, and comparison determination processing for comparing the electrical angle signals A1 and the electrical angle signals A2 in a continuous time series at time points.
