A rotation angle detector for detecting rotation angle of a rotator to be measured is provided. The detector includes a magnet which is fixed to the rotator to be measured and is rotated with the rotator to be measured and plural magnetic detection means respectively arranged at a prescribed angle, for detecting intensity of magnetic field generated by the magnet and outputting signals of electric charge based on the intensity of magnetic field. The detector further includes drive means for driving the plural magnetic detection means, where the drive means is capable of simultaneously changing magnetic sensitivities of the plural magnetic detection means in the same ratio. The detector further includes rotation angle calculation means for calculating rotation angle of the rotator to be measured based on signals output from the plural magnetic detection means.
