Abstract
Provides are a control device for a three-phase synchronous motor in which a position detection accuracy of a rotor can be improved when one three-phase synchronous motor is driven by a plurality of inverters, and an electric power steering device using the same. A control device for a three-phase synchronous motor includes: a three-phase synchronous motor including a first three-phase winding and a second three-phase winding; a first inverter connected to the first three-phase winding; a second inverter connected to the second three-phase winding; a first control device that controls the first inverter on the basis of a rotor position of the three-phase synchronous motor; and a second control device that controls the second inverter on the basis of the rotor position of the three-phase synchronous motor. The first control device estimates the rotor position on a basis of a neutral point potential of the first three-phase winding and a neutral point potential of the second three-phase winding.
