Abstract
In a motor driving apparatus including an inverter connectable to n motors (n being an integer not less than 2) each including a rotor having a permanent magnet, braking operation is performed on i (i being an integer from 1 to n−1) of the n motors, and then braking operation is performed on j (j being an integer from 1 to n−i) of the n motors other than the i motors. It is possible to reduce the risks of failure of the inverter and demagnetization of the motors due to overcurrent by reducing current flowing through the inverter and the motors when the braking operation is performed.
