A synchronization detection device includes: a correction unit configured to correct sampled data of a waveform on which a dither signal is superimposed, for each period of a reference signal in accordance with a period of the dither signal; a multiplication unit configured to multiply the corrected sampled data by a weight coefficient that is different for each level of the reference signal and associated with a timing of the reference signal; and an averaging unit configured to derive, as a detection result, an average of a result of the multiplication of the corrected sampled data by the weight coefficient.
