There is provided a torque detecting device for providing a highly accurate torque signal, and an electric power steering device using the torque detecting device. A torque sensor is provided with a first coil pair and a second coil pair, which detect a relative displacement between an input shaft and an output shaft by corresponding the relative displacement to a change in impedance. Magnetization signal generating units supply exciting currents with different magnetization frequencies to the first coil pair and a second coil pair, respectively. The magnetization frequency difference is set to 3.5 kHz or higher. Moreover, low-pass filters for intercepting passage of a frequency equivalent to the magnetization frequency difference are deployed in signal processing circuits respectively.

An abnormality diagnosing method is provided for a torque detecting device and an electric power steering device is provided using the torque detecting device. Immediately after the power supply is turned on and before steering auxiliary control is started, initial diagnosis is performed to determine that each monitoring block for monitoring an abnormality of a signal processing circuit constituting a torque detecting device operates normally. The initial diagnosis determines that a monitoring block is operating normally, by inputting a normal signal and an abnormal signal to the monitoring block alternately, and finding that the monitoring block carries out normal diagnosis when it receives the normal signal and that it carries out abnormal diagnosis when it receives the abnormal signal. Once all of the monitoring blocks are determined as normal, the steering auxiliary control based on a steering torque detected by the torque detecting device is started.
