Abstract
Included are a drive control signal generation unit configured to generate a drive control signal for a motor in accordance with a target rotation speed of the motor and a rotation speed of the motor calculated in response to a rotation position detection signal of the motor; a rotation speed signal generation unit configured to generate a rotation speed signal having a frequency corresponding to the rotation speed of the motor, in response to the rotation position detection signal of the motor; an abnormality determination processing unit configured to determine whether a condition value for abnormality determination of the motor has reached a predetermined threshold value, for each predetermined abnormality determination period, and generate an abnormality determination signal distinguishable from the rotation speed signal when the abnormality determination processing unit determines that the condition value has reached the predetermined threshold value; and a signal output unit configured to output the rotation speed signal generated by the rotation speed signal generation unit when the abnormality determination signal is not generated, and output the abnormality determination signal instead of the rotation speed signal when the abnormality determination signal is generated.
