In a motor feedback control, the current supply phase is set on the basis of the encoder count of an encoder and the current supply phase is also set on the basis of the encoder count by time-synchronous processing. In the feedback control, a maximum value or a minimum value of encoder counts is stored with updating. The rotation reversing is determined by comparing the present encoder count with the maximum value or the minimum value. If reversing is detected, the reverse rotation is stopped by fixing the current supply phase. If a disconnection is detected in windings of one phase in starting a motor feedback control, one of the other two phases for which no disconnection is detected is set to the first current supply phase.

A voltage between both terminals of each unit battery is amplified by a differential amplifier and is then converted by a converter into a predetermined physical quantity that corresponds to the voltage between both terminals of the unit battery. The converted physical quantity is then level-shifted by a detection circuit and is converted into a voltage on a reference potential of the lowest electric potential of the battery assembly. A control unit sequentially selects the converted voltages by a multiplexer, generates serial digital signals by an A/D conversion, and then transmits the serial digital signals to a control operation unit via an isolation buffer circuit. It is, therefore, possible to provide a battery voltage measurement circuit capable of measuring a voltage of each of unit batteries constituting a battery assembly with high accuracy by using a common measurement circuit in a relatively simple and inexpensive configuration.
