Patent ID: 10848082

Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a driving device with a low cost and/or a simple advance angle control for a motor. A voltage zero crossing detecting unit 314 is configured to detect an induced voltage generated from a coil with a specific phase of a fan motor 202 being zero of a voltage zero crossing point. A detection period setting unit 316 is configured to set at least one detection period synchronously with the voltage zero crossing point. A coil voltage detection comparator 302 is configured to compare a terminal voltage generated from one end of the coil with the specific phase with a threshold voltage, and generate a coil voltage detection signal S3 indicating a comparison result. A current phase detecting unit 318 is configured to generate a phase detection signal S8 indicating a relationship between the coil current flowing through the coil with the specific phase and a phase of an induced voltage based on a level of the coil voltage detection signal S3 in the detection period. A driving signal synthesis unit 308 is configured to generate a driving control signal S5 based on the phase detection signal S8.
