Abstract

See full text

Provided is an electronic clock which is capable of finely controlling a driving force of a normal driving pulse and suppresses variation in current consumption without an increase in circuit size. The electronic clock is configured so that while a chopped driving pulse is output and in an interval in which coil terminals have heretofore been short-circuited, a pulse is output (hereinafter referred to as adjustment pulse) for control from a terminal that is different from a terminal of a motor driver from which the normal driving pulse has been output. The output pattern of the adjustment pulse is changed with reference to a driving rank selecting circuit to increase or decrease a motor driving current and hence change the driving force.
