Abstract

A motor current detecting device includes a first wire, an instantaneous current detecting unit, an average electric current detecting unit, and a calculation unit. The first wire is configured and arranged to carry flow of a motor current that has been passed through a motor and a drive current that has been passed through a motor drive unit to drive the motor. The instantaneous current detecting unit is configured and arranged to detect an instantaneous value for a sum of the motor current and the drive current flowing on the first wire. The average electric current detecting unit is configured and arranged to detect an average value of the sum of the motor current and the drive current flowing on the first wire. The calculation unit is configured to calculate the motor current on the basis of the instantaneous value and the average value.
