When a motor is started up, an initial position detection circuit detects the initial position of a rotor using an inductive sensing method. An automatic parameter generating circuit determines a parameter to be used by the initial position detection circuit. The automatic parameter generating circuit measures: (i) a first time period τ+ required for a coil current to reach a threshold after a first polarity voltage is applied across an electrode pair of the motor; and (ii) a second time period τ− required for the coil current to reach a threshold after a second polarity voltage is applied across the electrode pair, for each threshold value, while the threshold value used in the measurement is changed. The threshold that provides a maximum difference between the first time period τ+ and the second time period τ− is held as the parameter to be used by the initial position detection circuit.
