Pulse motor driving system

Claim 1

A pulse motor driving system, comprising a memory storing data for controlling time intervals between the adjacent pulses produced in a series to steppingly drive a pulse motor; means for designating a number of stepping pulses in a section from start to stop of the pulse motor; calculating means dividing the designated number of stepping pulses into a predetermined number of parts, said calculating means controlling the read-out order of the time interval control data in each of the divided parts of pulses to thereby repeatedly use the data to control the time intervals between the pulses in these divided parts, said calculating means being operated in accordance with calculating formulas in the form of functions of the number of stepping pulses, each being specific to the divided parts of pulses so as to modify the data read out to control the pulses in these divided parts; and pulse generating means operated in response to the output data of the calculating means to determine the time intervals of the pulses; said calculating means being operated in accordance with the calculating formulas to progressively increase and decrease the speed of pulses in the divided parts, said calculating formulas including coefficients to modify the degrees of progressive increase and decrease of the pulse speed in response to the number of stepping pulses.
