  • Patent number: 10003288
    Abstract: A control circuit for a motor, includes: a plurality of m number of analog ports to each of which a detection signal indicating an electrical state of the motor is input, m being an integer of 2 or more; an A/D converter including a multiplexer to receive detection signals of the m number of analog ports and being configured to convert a detection signal selected by the multiplexer into digital data; a processor to generate a drive command of the motor based on the digital data; a pulse width modulator to perform pulse width modulation to generate a PWM signal based on the drive command; and an interface circuit to be triggered by at least one internal signal generated in the control circuit to control an operation of the A/D converter according to a control command from the processor and deliver the digital data to the processor.
