In the motor stop control device according to the embodiment, a main CPU
is provided which executes any one of reel stop control process 1 and the
reel stop control process 2 when the stop instruction of a stepping motor
occurs. In the reel stop control process 1, the main CPU changes a drive
power source A, which is applied to the stepping motor rotating at the
constant speed, to the drive power source B2, the voltage value of which
is lower that that of the drive power source A, and executes the stop
control of the stepping motor by the 2-phase excitation. In the reel stop
control process 2, the main CPU changes the drive power source A, which
is applied to the stepping motor rotating at the constant speed, to the
drive power source B1,the voltage value of which is between the voltage
values of the drive power source A and the drive power source B2, and
executes the stop control of the stepping motor by the 2-phase
excitation.
