ABSTRACT:
A motor driving apparatus includes a comparator, a threshold controller, a position determining unit, a phase-switching controller, and a current output unit. While the rotor is stopped, the phase-switching controller supplies a predetermined phase of winding with a current pulse having a predetermined pulse width so as not to cause the rotor to react and operate, in order to determine the initial position of the rotor. The position determining unit determines an initial position of the rotor based on the result of comparison between the induced voltage generated in a non-conduction phase by the current pulse and the threshold. The phase-switching controller performs energization or commutation according to the determined initial position of the rotor to start up the motor.
