In this motor, a unidirectional current flows in the electromagnets. In other words, unidirectional windings are used. In this motor, only strong repulsive force is utilized when a permanent magnet of a rotor and an electromagnet of a stator are adjacent. Hence, torque constant becomes higher and the efficiency of the motor is high. However, an effective value of the electromagnetic current increases because a large current flows in a short period.
