Abstract

Disclosed are an apparatus for controlling a driving of a reciprocating compressor capable of enhancing an efficiency by differently controlling a frequency and a stroke voltage according to a load size and capable of reducing consumption power, and a method thereof. The apparatus comprises a controlling unit for judging a load size by comparing a phase difference between a detected current and a stroke with a reference phase difference, and outputting a frequency control signal and a stroke control signal according to the judged load size.
