Abstract
A drive control system for a stepping motor which stores values for the current driving each phase of the motor in data tables. A central processing unit drives the motor in accordance with the current values stored in the data tables. The current values are stored in the data table with corresponding addresses. The current values are read out sequentially from the addresses in the data tables. Each time the address is incremented by 1, the magnitude of the angle of rotation of the motor is set so that it is always the same.
