Abstract:
A motor control apparatus, to control a motor based on an instruction phase representing a target phase of a rotor of the motor, includes a phase determiner, to determine a rotation phase of the motor rotor, and a controller having a first control mode to control a drive current flowing through a winding of the motor and a second control mode to supply a current to the winding corresponding to an instruction phase. To reduce a deviation between the instruction and rotation phases, the first control mode results in flowing drive current control based on a rotating coordinate system represented torque current component generating a torque in the rotor. The second control mode results in phase different drive current control first instruction phase. The controller starts the first control mode based on the rotation phase of the rotor determined based on the second instruction phase in the second control mode.

Claim (Index 8):
The motor control apparatus according to  claim 6 , further comprising:\n a first control circuit configured to supply a drive current to each of a winding of a first phase of the motor and a winding of a second phase of the motor in a case where the first control mode is executed; a second control circuit configured to supply the drive current to each of the winding of the first phase of the motor and the winding of the second phase of the motor in a case where the second control mode is executed; and a switcher configured to switch between control of the motor using the first control circuit and control of the motor using the second control circuit.
