Abstract

A brushless motor drive device has a signal synthesizing circuit for converting a plurality of sensing signals into a plurality of drive signals so as to determine an amplitude of each of the drive signals in accordance with a current error signal. The sensing signals are generated by a sensing circuit in response to variations in a magnetic field of a brushless multi-phase motor. The current error signal is representative of a difference between a current command signal and a motor drive current. The signal synthesizing circuit is characterized by including a calibrating circuit for adjusting the current error signal in accordance with an amplitude of any of the sensing signals. The calibrating circuit includes a differential amplifying circuit, a rectifying circuit, a filtering circuit, and a dividing circuit.
