Driving circuit of direct current brushless motor

Abstract

A driving circuit of a direct current brushless motor is provided. The circuit includes a sensing portion, arranged around a rotor, for generating sensing signals according to a position of the rotor, and a stator coil controller for supplying current to each stator coil using the sensing signals, wherein when the rotor is sensed, the sensing portion generates a first sensing signal having a predetermined high-state interval longer than a half rotating period, and a second sensing signal having the predetermined high state interval starting before the high-state of the first sensing signal is finished, and wherein the stator coil controller supplies current to the stator coil during the time when one of the first and second sensing signals is low. Accordingly, since it is not necessary to control phases of rotor sensing signals, the circuit is simplified and consumption power is reduced.
