Abstract
To provide a controller and a control method which can estimate a temperature of the temperature estimation with good accuracy without depending on detection information of other sensors other than the temperature sensor, even if the temperature sensor is attached to a position away from the temperature estimation point. A controller is provided with a sensor temperature detector that detects a sensor temperature based on an output signal of a temperature sensor attached to a temperature estimation object; and a temperature estimator that calculates an estimated temperature of the temperature estimation point, based on the current detection value of sensor temperature or the current correction value of sensor temperature, the detection value of sensor temperature before the step time or the correction value of sensor temperature before the step time, and a thermal time constant.
