Abstract
A fuel supply system includes an electronic control unit that outputs a target fuel pressure for controlling a low-pressure pump and an engine status, and a fuel pump controller (FPC) that generates a drive signal for driving the low-pressure pump based on the target fuel pressure. The FPC is configured to obtain an actual fuel pressure, to set a duty ratio and to perform a feedback control for the actual fuel pressure to follow the target fuel pressure, and to set a lower limit guard value based on the engine status. The lower limit guard setter sets a duty ratio of 0% as the lower limit guard value when the engine status indicates a stop of the engine.
