Abstract
A motor driving device includes, a DB current calculation unit which calculates a DB current flowing through a DB circuit, based on the motor rotational speed and intrinsic parameters for a motor and the DB circuit, a Joule heat calculation unit which calculates a Joule heat resulting from a DB current, based on the DB current, a storage unit which stores a table defining the relationship between the DB current at the start of DB and the Joule heat resulting from an arc generated in a relay depending on the DB current, an integration unit which integrates the Joule heat resulting from an arc at the start of DB, the Joule heat resulting from a DB current, or the sum of these Joule heats, every time DB is performed, and a comparison unit which outputs the comparison result between the resultant integration value and a predetermined reference value.
