Abstract
A motor control device includes a PWM signal generation unit configured to increase/decrease a duty in both directions of phase lag side and phase lead side regarding a first phase of three-phase PWM signal pattern. The PWM signal generation unit is configured to increase/decrease a duty in one of the directions of phase lag side and phase lead side regarding a second phase. The PWM signal generation unit is configured to increase/decrease a duty in a direction opposite to that of the second phase with reference to any phase of the carrier-wave period regarding a third phase. A timing point adjusting unit is configured to detect two-phase currents at timing points fixed in the carrier-wave period and to adjust a detection timing point so that the current is detectable at a variable timing point regarding at least one phase when the two-phase currents become undetectable at the fixed timing points.
