Vibration gyro circuitry, a vibration gyro unit, and a method for detecting a vibration gyro output, which enable detection of a rotational angular velocity with high sensitivity, are provided. The circuitry and the unit includes a differential amplifier circuit (4) for outputting a signal Vda corresponding to a difference (Vgl - Vgr) between output signals of two detection pieces of a vibration gyro (31), a synchronous detection circuit (5) for synchronously detecting the output signal Vda of the differential amplifier circuit (4), and a phase shift circuit for supplying to the synchronous detection circuit. (5) a signal, as a timing signal Vck for the synchronous detection, which is phase-shifted with respect to a drive signal (an output signal of an adding circuit 1) Vsa supplied to the vibration gyro (31). The phase difference ¸ps between the drive signal Vsa and the timing signal Vck is set on the basis of a phase difference characteristic of a detection sensitivity S for the output signal Vda of the differential amplifier circuit (4), which is obtained in advance under a condition where a rotational angular velocity is applied to the vibration gyro (31) in a driving state.
