Abstract

A differential amplifier detects a coil current Is at the time of steady rotation of a synchronous motor. An application voltage S 0 at this time is detected from an output of an ATT circuit and so on. With the use of the coil current Is which is detected, the application voltage S 0 at that time, and a predetermined scaling factor As, an induced current Ib is obtained based on Ib=As·S 0 −Is. The application voltage to the motor is controlled based on the induced current Ib which is obtained.

Claims (14)

1. A motor driving control circuit for controlling an application voltage to a coil of a synchronous motor, comprising:

a current detector which detects a coil current flowing in the coil at the time of steady rotation of the synchronous motor;

a voltage detector which detects an application voltage to the coil at the time of steady rotation of the synchronous motor;

a multiplier which multiplies the coil current or the application voltage by a predetermined scaling factor;

an induced power detector which calculates a difference between a component of the coil current and a component of the application voltage to obtain an induced power signal in accordance with an induced power of the synchronous motor; and

a controller which controls the application voltage to the synchronous motor based on the induced power signal.

2. The motor driving control circuit according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a scaling factor detector which obtains the scaling factor from a ratio of the application voltage and a motor current detected at the time of non-rotation of the synchronous motor.

3. The motor driving control circuit according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a scaling factor detector which obtains the scaling factor from a ratio of the application voltage and a motor current detected at the time of non-rotation of the synchronous motor, and an inductance component of a stator of the synchronous motor.

4. The motor driving control circuit according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a rotation speed signal generator which obtains a rotation speed signal having a frequency in accordance with a rotation speed of the synchronous motor, based on a logical operation of the induced power signal and a differential signal of the induced power signal.

5. The motor driving control circuit according to claim 1 , wherein

a phase difference between the induced power signal and the application voltage is obtained, and driving of the motor is controlled based on the phase difference which is obtained.
