Abstract
The operational state of the engine is detected and the target value of the motor is computed corresponding to the operational state (step S ); a current value of the motor is obtained (step S ); and the width of a stop target area that is a determination parameter is selected based on the target value and the current value (step S ). The stop target area is obtained based on the selected width of the stop target area and the target value (step S ). If the current value falls within the stop target area, then a motor control signal is determined so as to maintain the current value, and if the current value is beyond the stop target area, then the motor control signal is determined so as to draw the current value toward the target value (steps S and S ).
