Abstract
A drive system for a rotating electric machine system includes: a first inverter and a second inverter connected to first and second ends of multi-phase windings respectively; a selection unit performing selection between a first setting representing that the first inverter is set to a switch drive inverter and the second inverter is set to a neutral-point drive inverter and a second setting representing that the second inverter is set to the switch drive inverter and the first inverter is set to the neutral-point drive inverter; and a drive control unit performing a switch drive task of performing on-off driving of the upper and lower arm switches of the switch drive inverter to thereby input/output power to/from the rotating electrical machine; and a neutral-point drive task of maintaining at least one of the upper and lower arm switches of the neural-point drive inverter in an on state.
