  • Patent number: 12040729
    Abstract: A motor control device includes an inverter circuit to convert a DC power source voltage into a three-phase AC voltage and supply the three-phase AC voltage to the three-phase motor and a controller to generate three-phase PWM signals based on three-phase duty command values updated at a predetermined updating cycle and control the inverter circuit based on the three-phase PWM signals. The controller is configured or programmed to shift, when duty command values of at least two phases of the three-phase duty command values updated at a first update timing are the same, the duty command value of one phase of the duty command values of the two phases by a predetermined shift amount and shifts a duty command value of the one phase of the three-phase duty command values updated at a second update timing which is an update timing next to the first update timing by the shift amount in a direction opposite to a shift direction at the first update timing.
