Abstract
As a method for energizing a three-phase stepping motor of Y-connection, driving current values are set to be values resembling sine wave input approximation, thus making it possible to effect driving at small vibration. Energizing of the three-phase stepping motor is performed by a two-three phase driving scheme which calls for alternately effecting a two-phase excitation of the coils in the motor and a three-phase excitation of the coils in the motor. The driving current flowing through each of the coils approximates a sine wave having normalized values defined by .+-. 1, .+-. 0.87, .+-. 0.5 and 0.
