The leakage resistance detection device includes a coupling capacitor having one terminal connected to an on-board high voltage device and another terminal connected to a repetitive signal output circuit, and measures a leakage resistance as a function of a transition time during which a monitoring voltage, which is a potential at the another terminal of the coupling capacitor to be charged/discharged in response to an operation of a charge/discharge switching element that operates in response to a repetitive pulse signal, changes from one predetermined voltage to reach another predetermined voltage. When the measured leakage resistance has become equal to or smaller than a predetermined limit leakage resistance, the leakage resistance detection device generates a resistance abnormality determination output.

Leakage resistance detection device for an on-board high voltage device and leakage resistance detection method therefor

An inverter that executes a d q-axis control of a three-phase synchronous motor needs a rotational position sensor that detects rotational positions of an electric motor for mutual conversion between two-phase and three-phase. An angle error of this rotational position sensor affects accuracy in the d q-axis control, so that it is necessary to make a compensation with accuracy. In the conventional method, however, there is a problem of occurrence of an ignorable error due to influence of noise. An origin offset calculation method according to the invention includes a first process of forcibly making d q-axis current command values zero; a second process of multiplying a magnetic flux component voltage command value at this time by a proportional integral gain; and a third process of storing a rotational position sensor phase error when a magnetic flux component voltage command value becomes zero being a result of the second process.
