1. A rotational angle detection device, comprising:

  • a rotational angle sensor that outputs a sine signal and a cosine signal of which output levels are changed in accordance with a rotational angle of a detection target;

    a first rotational angle detector that detects the rotational angle based on the sine signal and the cosine signal;

    a pulse signal generator that generates, based on the sine signal and the cosine signal, three-phase pulse signals that have edges corresponding to predetermined rotational angles and that are set in such a manner that the predetermined rotational angles do not overlap each other and are at regular intervals; and

    a second rotational angle detector that detects the rotational angle based on the pulse signals.
