An injection control device opens and closes a fuel injection valve by driving the fuel injection valve with a current to control fuel injection to an internal combustion engine. The injection control device includes: a booster circuit that boosts a battery voltage; a boosting control unit that performs boosting control on the booster circuit; and a charge control setting unit that sets charge permission or charge prohibition for the booster circuit to the boosting control unit.

Injection control device

An injection control device for a fuel injection valve includes: a current detection unit, a current area correction control unit, a storage unit, and a reference current value correction unit. The current area correction control unit corrects, based on an energization current profile, an area correction amount of an energization time to equalize the integrated current value of the energization current profile and an integrated current value of the detected current, and obtains the integrated current value of the current based on an attainment time from a start of energization of the fuel injection valve to an attainment of each of plural reference current values. The storage unit stores a reference attainment time. The reference current value correction unit corrects each reference current value based on a difference between the reference attainment time and a detected attainment time at a time of actual drive.
