Abstract
An apparatus and a method may control a compressor. The apparatus may control a motor (included in a compressor) such that the motor quickly repeats turn-on and turn-off operations in a cooling power supply time period/section, thereby enabling the compressor to compress refrigerant in the cooling power supply time period/section. Thus, cooling power of a refrigerator may change while the compressor operates with maximum efficiency.
