Abstract
An electromagnetic drive valve always maintains an optimal waveform of a current supplied to electromagnets for driving an armature. The waveform of an instruction current to each coil is changed in accordance with changes of external disturbances affecting a valve body based on the pressure in the cylinders of an internal combustion engine, the sliding resistance on a bearing, and the like.
