Polygonal Motor Control Circuit
The polygonal motor is a DC motor rotated by a clock signal (PMCLK-1) output from the Laser-CPU.
This motor is controlled under PLL (Phase Locked Loop) to realize an accurate and constant rotation.
Its rotation status is converted to a status signal (PMOK-0) and then output to the Laser-CPU. PMOK-0
signal moves to a low level only when the rotation status of the motor is constant. The Laser-CPU
detects the rotation status with this signal, and emits a laser beam only when the rotation status is
constant.
