Abstract
In a sensor output determination apparatus, a converter converts analog outputs of two sensors of a first-phase to two digital signals representing a current of the first-phase, and converts analog outputs of two sensors of a second-phase to two digital signals representing a current of the second-phase. The determination section determines whether the analog outputs of the two sensors of the first-phase are normal based on the two digital signals representing the current of the first-phase, and determines whether the analog outputs of the two sensors of the second-phase are normal based on the two digital signals representing the current of the second-phase. The transmission section transmits one of the two digital signals representing the current of the first-phase, one of the two digital signals representing the current of the second-phase, and a digital signal representing a result of determinations of the determination section, to the outside of the apparatus.
