A stepping motor includes a pair of drive coils arranged to sandwich a magnetic
rotor in the axial direction of a rotor shaft in order to decrease the motor size.
The drive coils are configured to be annular around the rotor shaft that extends
in both directions from the magnetic rotor. A pair of cylindrical yokes are provided
to enclose the drive coils. A pair of sintered bearings that support the rotational
movement of the rotor shaft are made of a magnetic material, and the cylindrical
yokes and the sintered bearings are formed together.
