Abstract
A synchronous motor control device for controlling driving of a synchronous motor through sensorless control includes a DC excitation instruction generation unit that generates an instruction for supplying, to the synchronous motor, fixed excitation current having a current phase fixed; a torque zero equivalence detection unit that detects, on the basis of data relating to voltage or current control on the synchronous motor, a point of time at which torque generated in a rotor of the synchronous motor becomes equivalent to zero in a time period during which the excitation current based on the instruction is flowing through the synchronous motor; and a magnetic pole position update unit that initializes a magnetic pole position on the basis of the fixed current phase at the detected point of time at which the torque becomes equivalent to zero.
