Abstract

A power supply feeds a dc voltage to an operational amplifier at an inverting input while a motor current command value is input to the operational amplifier at a non-inverting input and when a dc voltage being supplied to a power amplifier varies the operational amplifier responds to the voltage variation by adjusting the motor current command value to alter a control signal applied to a motor control circuit and thus reduce revolution-rate variation.
