ABSTRACT:
An ultrasonic motor which has a driving circuit monitoring a current flowing through a piezoelectric element of the ultrasonic motor, shaping and amplifying the current, and feeding back as a control voltage to a voltage-controlled oscillating circuit, whose output is used to generate a drive signal for the ultrasonic motor. This ultrasonic motor driving circuit is provided with a rotation halt detector that detects when the ultrasonic motor stops its rotation. According to an output signal of the rotation halt detector, a reference voltage for the rectification and amplification is variably controlled.
