A temperature detection device includes: a temperature detection element; a constant current circuit configured to supply a driving current to the temperature detection element; and a temperature signal generation unit configured to convert a voltage of the temperature detection element when the driving current is supplied to the temperature detection element into a temperature signal. The temperature detection device includes a driving current monitoring circuit configured to monitor change in the driving current outputted from the constant current circuit. The driving current monitoring circuit includes a current-voltage conversion unit voltage of which changes corresponding to a change in the driving current, and outputs by a switching circuit the voltage when the driving current is supplied from the constant current circuit to the current-voltage conversion unit.
