Abstract

Magnetic bearing control device and control method are disclosed. A magnetic bearing control device according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a bearing control unit for outputting a plurality of switch control signals on the basis of gap information of a bearing coil and a rotor and current information applied to the bearing coil; and a coil driving unit for turning a plurality of self-formed switching elements on/off in accordance with the plurality of switch control signals and controlling the amount of current applied to the bearing coil and thus adjusting the magnetic field strength between the bearing coil and the rotor. The bearing control unit generates and outputs the plurality of switch control signals such that bootstrap capacitor charging time of the coil driving unit may be secured. Therefore, a magnetic bearing control circuit structure may be simplified by means of an additional bootstrap capacitor structure.
