Abstract
According to one embodiment, a motor control system includes a motor including a rotor and a coil, an H bridge circuit configured to control current flowing in the coil, a motor control circuit configured to execute PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) constant current control of the H bridge circuit, a time measurement circuit configured to measure a first time in which the H bridge circuit is in a first state, and a first detection circuit configured to detect a low rotation or stop state of the rotor based on a length of the first time.
