2.3.6 RF Motor Drive Circuit
Figure 2-24 shows a block diagram of the RF motor drive circuit, and Table 2-10 provides the RF motor
specifications. The RF motor is a stepping motor. The control circuit performs open-loop phase switching
control according to the timing data for acceleration, constant speed, and deceleration. CPU ports PG10 to
PG13 output the motor phase switching signals. The control method is not equipped with a hold circuit for
changing the motor phase. The RF motor rotates when the carriage moves.
