The present invention provides an information acquisition device and method for a pulsating voltage. The device uses a signal isolation circuit to receive a switch-controlling voltage of a motor driver and outputs a logic voltage. When a signal processing module receives the logic voltage from the signal isolation circuit, the signal processing module starts a counter and determines whether a rising or falling edge is present in the logic voltage. When determining that a first rising edge, a first falling edge, and a second rising edge are respectively present in the logic voltage, the signal processing module respectively stores a value of the counter as a first counter value, a second counter value, and a third counter value, and proceeds to calculate a voltage duty cycle of a motor-switching period based on the counter values. The present invention calculates the voltage duty cycle with improved accuracy.
