Abstract
A duty ratio calculation section () of this device calculates target duty ratios of respective phases on the basis of a motor current value. When the target duty ratio of an arbitrary phase (U-phase) has become an uncontrolled duty ratio (for example, 5% or lower or 95% or higher), a duty ratio correction section () obtains corrected duty ratios by either adding or subtracting a differential duty ratio, that is, the difference between the target duty ratio of the arbitrary phase (U-phase) and a controllable duty ratio (for example, 0% or 100%), to or from the target duty ratios of the other phases (V-phase, W-phase). A PWM output section () applies a PWM signal, which is based on the controllable duty ratio and the corrected duty ratios, to the power device ().
