ABSTRACT:
A third reference pattern which can be detected by a first reference pattern formed on a first detecting member and cannot be detected by a second reference pattern formed on a second detecting member is formed at a first position on a rotatable disk, a fourth reference pattern which can be detected by a second reference pattern formed on the second detecting member and cannot be detected by the first reference pattern formed on the first detecting member is formed at a second position substantially rotation-symmetrical with the first position on the rotatable disk, a signal obtained by the third reference pattern of the rotatable disk being detected by the first reference pattern formed on the first detecting member is supplied as a first reference signal to one signal processing circuit, and a signal obtained by the fourth reference pattern of the rotatable disk being detected by the second reference pattern formed on the second detecting member is supplied as a second reference signal to the other signal processing circuit.
