Abstract
A data recorder in which a recording is moved by stepping motor whose rotor rotation angle is detected, the stepping motor having a current switching circuit which controls the application of excitation current to the drive coils of the motor in accordance with the detected rotation angle. A control circuit counts the detected result of the rotor rotation angle, detects the position of the head and generates start and stop control signals of the head, thereby starting and stopping switch-over control of the current switching circuit being effected.
