Abstract

See full text

A movement includes a driver having ON and OFF states, and outputting a drive signal to a coil of a motor, a lower limit detector detecting that a current flowing through the coil is less than a lower limit, a drive controller bringing the driver into the ON state based on a result of the lower limit detector, and bringing the driver into the OFF state based on an elapsed time from the ON state, a polarity switcher switching a polarity of the drive signal when an elapsed time from the OFF state of the driver satisfies a switching condition, and a drive stopper stopping driving of the driver when the OFF time satisfies a stopping condition.
