Abstract

The task of the present invention is to provide a driving circuit capable of outputting information useful to design or control of a system to outside. The present invention relates to a driving circuit and a driving method of a stepping motor, and an electronic machine using the driving circuit of a stepping motor. A counter electromotive force detection circuit detects a counter EMF generated in a coil. A revolution count detection circuit acquires the revolution count of the stepping motor. A load angle estimating portion calculates a load angle according to the counter EMF and the revolution count. An interface circuit is configured to be capable of outputting angle information associated with the load angle to outside, or accessing the angle information from the outside.
