Abstract

A motor control apparatus including an arithmetic circuit (113) for calculating a current command, a holding circuit (118) for holding the current command, a pulse-width modulating circuit (114) for pulse-width modulating an output signal from the holding circuit (118) and provided with a dead zone with respect to the output signal, and a transistorized amplifier/converter circuit (117) for controlling a motor by the pulse-width modulated signal. The arithmetic circuit (113) adds a compensating signal, to the current command to compensate for motor control losses due to the dead zone, and delivers the result to the holding circuit (118).
