In a rotation-angle detector, a first detector detects a movement of a driven body following a rotation of a change gear engaged with a rotary gear of a rotary body, and outputs the detection result as a detection signal which gradually increases or decreases. At the same time, a second detector detects a rotation of a detecting gear engaged with the change gear, and outputs the detection result as a detection signal which repeats continuously. A detecting circuit detects a rotation angle of a rotary body based on these two detection signals. This structure allows the rotation-angle detector to produce a smaller detection error, and be downsized. Further, a simple calculation in the detecting circuit is achievable.
