ABSTRACT:
A drive method and system are disclosed for a stepping motor typically having several sets of four phase windings on respective stator poles of annular arrangement, and a rotor having several alternating N and S poles at constant circumferential spacings. Normally, the windings are sequentially excited as by a single or two phase drive mode to cause the rotor to rotate by increments. For stopping the rotor in a required angular position, any one or two of the four phase windings are excited in a normal direction to polarize the associated stator pole or poles into one polarity to attract one of the opposite poles of the rotor. Further, the other phase windings on both sides of the noted one or two windings are excited in the reverse direction, as by the discharge of capacitors, with the consequent polarization of the associated stator poles into the opposite polarity. The stator poles thus polarized into the different polarities make possible the positive detenting of the rotor in the required angular position.
