Abstract
PURPOSE:To constitute a clock that the life of battery can be known without the provision of an alarm device newly, by causing an uneven rotation to a second hand moving continously to inform the battery life. CONSTITUTION:When the battery voltage is normal, a motor M is continuously driven and a second hand is continuously run at a constant speed. If the battery voltage is lowered than a preset voltage, an output of a detection circuit A is inverted to 1, and pulses in frequencies f0, f1 and f2 are selectively generated from a terminal b1 of a selection circuit B. Thus, from a driving circuit DR, a driving pulse with voltage V1 and frequency f1, a driving pulse with voltage V0 and frequency f0, and a driving pulse with voltage V2 and frequency f2 are selectively generated and the motor M is driven. Thus, the movement of the second hand is irregular and the battery life is announced. Since the average speed of the second hand is equal to the average speed at normal state, no error for display time can be caused.
