Abstract

This control device is used in connection with a motor comprising a magnetic rotor and at least two magnetic stator circuits coupled with respective coils (b.sub.1,b.sub.2). A logic circuit (21) is arranged to alternatively feed drive pulses to both coils and to connect the coil which is not fed to a detection circuit (24, 25) the output of which is connected to the logic circuit in order to determine the duration of a feed pulse or to trigger a new feed pulse. This control device allows the current consumption of the motor as well as the locking torque to be reduced, since the servo control obtained insures the rotor positioning in case an important disturbance should occur.
