Abstract
Abstract A rotation phase control device which synchronizes the rotation phase of the rotor of a motor with a reference signal and which has a steady-state characteristic compensating circuit improves the starting characteristic of the motor by compensating characteristic control apparatus for varying the compensating characteristic of the compensating circuit based on whether or not the rotation phase of the rotor is within a predetermined synchronization range relative to the reference signal.

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
24 words
A device according to claim 1, wherein said enhancing means includes means for holding the discrimination signal of said discrimination means for each discrimination.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
66 words
A device according to claim 1, wherein said discrimination means includes a circuit for forming a pulse of a predetermined width phase-synchronized to one of said phase detection signal and said reference signal and a pulse of narrow width phase-synchronized to the other signal, and a circuit for discriminating if said pulse of narrow width is present in the period of said pulse of predetermined width.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
58 words
A device according to claim 1, wherein said charging means is arranged to increase the amplification of said amplifying means in the low frequency zone when the phase error between said phase detection signal and said reference signal is within a predetermined difference which is higher than that which occurs when the error is beyond the predetermined difference.
