Abstract
An A-phase brushless motor, where A is an integer greater than or equal to 2, includes a stator and a rotor. The stator has q stator poles, where q is an integer greater than or equal to A. The stator poles form S stator pole sets each consisting of A stator poles each of which corresponds to one of A phases, where S is an integer equal to (q/A). The rotor has p rotor poles, where p is an integer greater than or equal to 2, and is so arranged that the rotor poles face the stator poles. Further, in the brushless motor, p≧q, and the stator poles are arranged in a circumferential direction of the motor such that a difference in electrical angular position between any adjacent two of the A stator poles in each of the S stator pole sets is equal to (360°/A).
