Abstract: A shift range control device switches a shift range by controlling drive of a motor. An angle calculation unit calculates a motor angle based on a signal from a rotation angle sensor that detects a rotation position of the motor. A drive control unit drives the motor so that the motor angle becomes a target angle according to the target shift range, and stops a rotor by a fixed phase energization, when the motor angle reaches a target angle. When the rotor vibrates with respect to stop position, the drive control unit maintains a state in which a brake torque, which is the torque generated when moving away from center of vibration, is larger than an acceleration torque, which is the torque generated when moving toward the center of vibration, and reduces the current that energizes the motor based on a difference between the brake torque and the acceleration torque.

The excessive return determination unit determines whether or not there is a possibility of an excessive return exceeding an allowable return position, when a non-energization return control is performed to return a motor in a direction away from a movable limit position by an external force generated in the rotation transmission system by turning off the energization to the motor after driving the motor to the movable limit position where the drive is restricted by the drive limiting portion. When it is determined that there is no possibility of the excessive return, the energization is continuously turned off, and when it is determined that there is a possibility of the excessive return, a stop control configured to stop the motor by energizing is performed.
