A back electromotive detection comparator compares back electromotive voltages Vu to Vw with a common voltage Vn of coils, and generates first rectangular wave signals Pu to Pw. A masking circuit performs masking of the first rectangular wave signals Pu to Pw, and outputs the resultant signals as second rectangular wave signals Mu to Mw. An output circuit supplies a drive current to coils on the basis of the second rectangular wave signals Mu to Mw. A frequency generating circuit generates a frequency generation signal SigFG whose level switches at every edge of the second rectangular wave signals Mu to Mw. A mask signal generating circuit generates a mask signal MSK which is at a high level during an interval multiplied by a coefficient to a pulse width Tp of the frequency generation signal SigFG after level transition of the frequency generation signal SigFG. The masking circuit nullifies level fluctuation of the first rectangular wave signals Pu to Pw during an interval when a mask signal MSK is at the high level.
