The present invention provides a rotation angle detection device that detects a steering state quantity of steer-by-wire. The rotation angle detection device includes a drive gear that rotates along with the rotation of a rotating shaft part, first through third driven gears that rotate in conjunction with the drive gear and have different numbers of teeth that are indivisible by each other, sensors that detect the amounts of rotation and are provided for the respective first through third driving gears, a rotation amount generating unit that generates the amount of rotation of the drive gear by combining the amounts of rotation of different driven gears, and power supply circuits each of which is provided for a combination of sensors that detect the amounts of rotation of different driven gears. This configuration makes it possible to improve robustness against failure of sensor elements and power supply circuits.
