Abstract
A motor driver, including a bridge circuit including a switching element and a diode, connecting with a coil terminal of each phase of a polyphase motor; a modulator modulating a voltage value applied to the coil terminal of each phase such that a minimum voltage value applied thereto is zero; a PWM signal generator generating a PWM signal, based on the voltage value applied to each phase, which is modulated by the modulator; and a switching element drive signal generator generating a switching element drive signal to drive the switching signal, based on the PWM signal generated by the PWM signal generator.
