Abstract: If abnormalities of the sensor part are detected, the power-source control section temporarily stops the electric power supply from the sensor power source to the sensor part so that the sensor power source voltage Vs which is the voltage between the sensor power source and the sensor part falls. In addition, after electric power supply to the sensor part resumes, and the sensor part is recovered from the abnormalities, then, the power source control section continues the electric power supply from the sensor power source to the sensor part. When the sensor part is not recovered from the abnormalities, the power source control section stops the electric power supply from the sensor power source to the sensor part.

Abstract: A control device controls an operation of an electric motor, which is rotated by an electric power supplied from a battery. The control device includes an inverter, a controller and a booster. The inverter includes switching elements. The inverter converts an electric power supplied from the battery and supplies the converted electric power to the motor.
