A high precision position detecting apparatus is provided in which a periodical position detecting error caused by an offset, dispersion of an amplitude difference, or a phase difference in an output signal of a position sensor is reduced. Digitized values DS and DC of the position sensor are subjected to averaging processing to output values ADS and ADC. A multiplier and an integrator calculate values ADS and ADC, using an output DST of a distance calculator, and obtain values SOS and COS which are substantially proportional to a value derived by integrating two output signals of the position sensor by a movement quantity. A divider divides the values SOS and COS by a value DSTS which is equivalent to a displacement and outputs values SO and CO which are equivalent to the average of two output signals of the position sensor. When a signal SET changes from low to high for each integer multiple period of two output signals of the position sensor, values SO and CO as offset components are stored in a memory.
