A motor drive control device includes a control unit generating a control signal Sd such that one-phase excitation of exciting, of coils and of two phases of a two-phase stepping motor, a coil for one phase and two-phase excitation of exciting the coils for two phases are alternately repeated, and a drive unit driving the coils of two phases based on the control signal Sd. An energization angle θ representing a magnitude of an electric angle for continuously energizing the coil of one phase in one direction is capable of being set in the control unit. Specifically, the control unit determines a period T1n for performing the one-phase excitation based on a back electromotive voltage generated in the coil non-excited in the one-phase excitation, and determines a period T2n for performing the two-phase excitation based on an elapsed time per unit angle while the two-phase stepping motor is being excited and the energization angle θ.
