Abstract:
A motor controller 100-1 includes an inverter, a current detection unit, a current detector, and a PWM signal generator. Upon occurrence of a condition in which a first energization time period, which has an energization width in which a phase current for a first phase is detectable by the current detector, and a second energization time period, which has an energization width in which a phase current for a second phase is difficult to be detected by the current detector, are present, the PWM signal generator extracts a portion of a zero vector period for a first PWM signal, a second PWM signal, and a third PWM signal, to assign an energization width corresponding to the extracted zero vector period, to a period, other than the zero vector period, for a given PWM signal among the first PWM signal, the second PWM signal, and the third PWM signal, so that the second energization time period is adjusted to have an energization width in which the phase current for the second phase is detectable by the current detector.
