1 Abstract: A miniature electronic timepiece whose analog-display time- indicating hands are driven by the rotor of a stepping motor actuated by low-frequency periodic timing pulses derived by frequency division from a high-frequency crystal-controlled time base. The motor, in addition to a stator coil wound on a core, includes an auxiliary coil wound on the same core to define a transformer whose primary is the auxiliary coil and whose secondary is the stator coil. To power the electronic watch, a voltage at a predetermined level is required, this being supplied by a converter formed by an electronic chopper interposed between the primary of the transformer and a d.c. source whose output is at a different voltage level. Thus the d.c. voltage applied to the primary is periodically interrupted, the resultant a.c. voltage yielded by the secondary being rectified to provide the desired power voltage.
