Abstract

In a stepping motor driven electronic timepiece a detection pulse is supplied to the motor coil to set up, across a detection resistance, a detection voltage the magnitude of which is indicative of whether the motor is in a rotation or a non-rotation condition. A path for the detection pulse current is established through the detection resistance and the coil in series only after establishment of a path which does not include said resistance. In Figure 8 the motor coil is shown at 7, and 40, 41, 42, 43, 44 and 45 represent electronic switches. 24 is the detection resistance. Figure 8a shows the switching state in which there is no detection current path; Figure 8b shows the path 46 in which the coil is included and the detection resistance is not; and Figure 8c shows the path 47 in which the coil and the detection resistance are in series. <IMAGE>
