Abstract: A power supply current monitoring apparatus is used for a load drive apparatus with two systems to drive a load. Each system includes a drive circuit connected in parallel with a battery and a relay connected between the drive circuit and a point at which power of the battery is divided between the systems. When overcurrent is detected once in one system, a repetitive monitoring process is performed. The monitoring process determines whether the overcurrent occurs by repeating a monitoring cycle. The monitoring cycle turns OFF the relay of one system and then monitors currents by turning ON the relay of one system when a predetermined cycle time elapses since the overcurrent detection. The monitoring process includes a mask procedure to stop monitoring the current in the other system. The mask procedure is performed after the relay of one system is turned OFF in each monitoring cycle.

When overcurrent is detected once in one system, a repetitive monitoring process is performed. The monitoring process finally determines that the overcurrent actually occurs when a predetermined condition is satisfied after repeating a monitoring cycle in which an overcurrent time during which the overcurrent continues after the relay is turned ON is accumulated. The condition is satisfied when the monitoring cycle in which the overcurrent time reaches a predetermined threshold is repeated a predetermined consecutive number of times.

Abstract: An electronic device includes a semiconductor module, a wiring substrate, a case member and a heat conducting member. The heat conducting member thermally connects predetermined portions of wiring patterns and a heat conducting pattern of the wiring substrate to a predetermined heat conduction region of a surface of the case member opposing to the wiring substrate. The predetermined heat conduction region is located further from the wiring substrate than a surface of a body portion opposing to the case member. As a result, heat can be radiated and a short can be restricted with the case member having a simple shape. The heat conducting pattern is disposed adjacent to at least one of non-terminal projecting surfaces of the body portion on a surface of the wiring substrate. As a result, an area of a heat conducting passage increases and heat radiation performance can be increased.

Abstract: In an electronic device, a one-side heat radiation element and a two-side heat radiation element are disposed on a surface of a substrate adjacent to a heat sink. The one-side heat radiation element has a rear-side covered conductive portion and a rear-surface molded portion on the rear-side covered conductive portion adjacent to the heat sink, and radiates heat to the substrate. A surface of a rear-side exposed conductive portion of the two-side heat radiation element adjacent to the heat sink is exposed and the two-side heat radiation element radiates heat to the substrate and the heat sink. The rear-surface molded portion controls a limit position of the one-side heat radiation element toward the heat sink due to deformation of the substrate. A heat radiation gel is filled in between the rear-side exposed conductive portion and the heat sink to radiate heat from the two-side heat radiation element toward the heat sink.

Abstract: An energization control circuit compares a target rotation direction of a motor and an actual rotation direction of a motor detected based on rotation detection sensors. If the compared rotation directions are in disagreement, the energization control circuit switches over an inverter control mode from 120-degree energization to 180-degree energization to extend an on-period of a high-side switching element of an inverter circuit to an advance phase side. Thus, the high-side switching element is turned on, when a low-side switching element of the same phase is in a turned-off state. A free-wheeling current is allowed to flow through the high-side switching element rather than through a free-wheeling diode of the high-side switching element.

The electric driver unit includes: a motor for driving the apparatus; a switching part for applying a drive voltage to the motor; a current information output part for providing current information associated with a current flowing in the switching part; a power distribution control part for controlling power distribution to the motor by controlling the switching part; and an oil temperature information output part for providing oil temperature corresponding value, which depends on temperature of oil that surrounds the apparatus. The power distribution control part controls the current based on the current information so that the current stays below a target value. The target value includes a normal value and a large value. The power distribution control part adopts the large value as the target value until the oil temperature corresponding value reaches a predetermined temperature.
