Abstract
Provided are a power steering device and a control device for a power steering device, which are capable of reducing power consumption. The power steering device includes a current detection number setting circuit configured to set the number of times of detection of a DC bus current value by a current detecting circuit to a first predetermined number over a first predetermined cycle of a PWM period when the steering-state signal indicative of a steering operation state is received, and to set the number of times of detection so that the number of times of detection becomes smaller than the first predetermined number over the first predetermined cycle of the PWM period when a steering-state signal indicative of a non-steered state is received.
