The angular dependence of the magnetic relaxation for YBa{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub y}/PrBa{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub y} (YBCO/PBCO) superlattice was measured under magnetic field to investigate the flux pinning. The applied magnetic field was 0.1 Tesla. The direction of the applied magnetic field makes an angle of 10{degrees}, 20{degrees}, 30{degrees}, 45{degrees}... with the c-axis of YBCO/PBCO superlattice. Based on the Anderson-Kim model the authors derive the pinning energy of this film. The pinning energy is angular independent. The results are discussed.
