Abstract

Because the relationship of the fuel injection quantity to a designated injection period differs in a half-lift region and a full-lift region, the purpose of the present invention is to bring the flow rate characteristics of an intermediate-lift region close to the flow rate characteristics of the full-lift region and improve the controllability of small fuel injection quantities. Provided are a peak current supply period in which a valve body of a fuel injection valve causes the magnetic force necessary for a valve-opening action to be generated, and a lift quantity adjustment period in which, after the peak current supply period, a current lower than the peak current is passed for a prescribed period; further provided is a current interrupt period in which a drive current is rapidly lowered before the lift quantity adjustment period.
