Abstract
A position detecting apparatus includes: a position sensor 10 that inputs an excitation signal having a given period waveform and outputs a first amplitude modified signal induced in accordance with a detected position from a first output winding and outputs a second amplitude modified signal induced in accordance with a detected position from a second output winding; a first phase shifting circuit 23 for electrically shifting a phase of the first amplitude modified signal by a given angle; a second phase shifting circuit 24 for electrically shifting a phase of the second amplitude modified signal by a given angle; converting means 15,16 for converting the signal outputted from the first phase shifting circuit 23 and the signal outputted from the second phase shifting circuit 24 into a phase modulated signal; and calculating means 17-22 for obtaining a detected position on the basis of the phase of the phase modulated signal outputted from the converting means 15,16.
