Abstract: A motor drive apparatus includes multiple inverter circuits provided corresponding, respectively, to multiple motors, a controller configured to control the inverter circuits using switching signals, a detector configured to detect a current ripple generated by switching operations of the inverter circuits. The controller operates in a first mode and a second mode.
