Abstract
A motor control apparatus, including: a current detection unit configured to detect a current flowing through a coil of a motor; a voltage application unit configured to apply a voltage to the coil; and a control unit configured to control the voltage application unit by outputting a PWM signal in order to rotate the motor at a predetermined rotation speed, wherein the control unit detects a rotation state of the motor based on a duty of the PWM signal and a current value detected by the current detection unit.
