Abstract
A controller apparatus for an electric power tool is provided where the electric power tool includes a battery and a DC brushless motor. The controller apparatus includes a current detector that detects an instantaneous current flowing in the DC brushless motor; a current calculator that calculates one of an average value and an effective value of the instantaneous current detected by the current detector; a current controller configured to utilize a result from the current calculator as a detected value; and a speed controller configured to generate a target value of the current controller. The controller apparatus further includes a limiter that limits the target value of the current controller, where the limiter is provided at an output stage of the speed controller.
