Abstract

See full text

A stepping motor control circuit includes a drive pulse generation section that generates forward-rotation drive pulses that drive a stepping motor stepwise in a forward rotation direction and reverse-rotation drive pulses that drive the stepping motor stepwise in a reverse rotation direction and a forward/reverse rotation switching control section that switches the drive pulses outputted to the stepping motor from one of the forward-rotation drive pulses and the reverse-rotation drive pulses to the other, and the forward/reverse rotation switching control section switches the drive pulses outputted to the stepping motor from one of the forward-rotation drive pulses and the reverse-rotation drive pulses to the other and then provide a predetermined period before the other drive pulses are outputted to the stepping motor.
