Abstract

Abstract A system for driving an inductor type synchronous motor for minute control includes an inductor type synchronous motor having first means for driving m numbers of phases and a group of first magnetic teeth, second means equipped with a group of second magnetic teeth; and power feed equipment for feeding power to the driving windings of the individual phases; wherein the minute control characterized by the electrical resolution number R per electrical angle 2m (2m being one fundamental cycle) of the power feed equipment is larger than 3 m points (R 2 3 m) or is stepless; and the power feed equipment feeds electric-waves of current or voltage to the driving windings, the electric-waves being trigonometric functional patterns formed by a control means of the power feed equipment.
