Abstract
To provide a motor drive control device capable of determining the rotational direction of a motor using a simple configuration with a reduced number of lead wires from position sensors, and a method for controlling the motor drive control device. A control circuit unit of a motor drive control device includes a first comparator configured to compare the magnitudes of a first positive Hall signal and a first negative Hall signal output from a first Hall element, thereby generating a first position detection signal; a second comparator configured to compare the magnitudes of a second negative Hall signal output from a second Hall element and the first negative Hall signal, thereby generating a second position detection signal; and a rotational direction determination unit configured to compare the transitions of the first position detection signal and the second position detection signal, thereby determining the rotational direction of a motor.
