A vibrating gyroscope includes two input buffers each arranged to input voltage signals appearing at respective detection electrodes of one of two piezoelectric vibrators. An adding circuit adds up output voltages of the respective input buffers. An amplitude control circuit automatically controls a loop gain such that an output voltage of the adding circuit has a substantially constant amplitude. A phase-shift circuit controls the phase of a drive voltage supplied to the piezoelectric vibrators such that the piezoelectric vibrators oscillate by positive feedback. Two differential amplifier circuits each amplify a voltage difference corresponding to an angular velocity about an axis. Two synchronous detection circuits each perform detection using a synchronizing signal generated from an oscillation signal, and detect a voltage signal corresponding to the angular velocity.
