Abstract
An electromagnetic rotary actuator including three laminated pole pieces equiangularly spaced about an output shaft. Each of the pole pieces has a bobbin coil wound thereabout. The output shaft rotor is magnetized with four 90.degree. poles. One of the stator coils is utilized as a reference coil and is energized with a DC current. The other two coils are each coupled to a respective drive transistor. The drive signals to the two drive transistors are complementary. The resultant magnetic field set up by the three stator coils interacts with the magnetic field from the output shaft rotor to move the output shaft to a selected angular position.
