Abstract
A synchronous motor drive system improves the design flexibility regarding torque characteristics as compared with conventionally available design flexibility. A synchronous motor has a rotor and a stator. Each of at least two adjacent stator teeth has a slit formed at the tip thereof. Each of a plurality of stator teeth has a main coil wound therearound in concentrated winding. Between each two adjacent teeth having a slit, a sub-coil is wound around in a manner of being accommodated in the respective slits. The drive device separately controls electric current supplied to the main coils and electric current supplied to the sub-coil.
