Abstract
There is provided a driving circuit for a stepping motor, including: a counter electromotive force detection circuit configured to detect a counter electromotive force generated in a coil; a current value setting circuit configured to generate a current set value based on the counter electromotive force; a constant current chopper circuit configured to generate a pulse-modulated signal which is pulse-modulated so that a detected value of a coil current flowing through the coil approaches a target amount based on the current set value; and a logic circuit configured to control a bridge circuit connected to the coil according to the pulse-modulated signal, wherein the driving circuit is configured to output the current set value to outside or to access the current set value from the outside.
