A circuit for driving a stepping motor comprises a sensor for detecting when the stepping motor is in a hold position, a counter for counting an output from the sensor, a hold pulse pattern generator for generating a hold pulse pattern to hold the stepping motor in the hold position, a shift circuit for shifting the hold pulse pattern from the hold pulse pattern generator, an inverter circuit for inverting hold pulse pattern from the hold pulse pattern generator, and a comparator for comparing an output from the counter with a reference value and producing an output to select one of the hold pulse pattern from the hold pulse pattern generator, a shifted hold pulse pattern from the shift circuit, and an inverted hold pulse pattern from the inverter circuit.
