Abstract
An electronic control unit () including semiconductor modules (to) and capacitors (to) is disposed in the axial direction of a motor (). The semiconductor modules (to) are placed longitudinally and brought into contact with a heat sink (). The vertical line to each of surfaces of semiconductor chips included in the semiconductor modules (to) is perpendicular to the axial line of the motor (). Accordingly, the capacitors (to) are disposed so that at least a part of the capacitors (to) overlap the semiconductor modules (to) and heat sink () in the axial direction of the motor ().
