A device for driving a plurality of motors and an electric apparatus having the same include a first capacitor and a second capacitor; an inverter connected to a DC terminal; a multi-phase motor connected to the inverter; a single-phase motor serially connected with the multi-phase motor; and a controller to control the inverter, wherein, for starting the single phase motor during operation of the multi-phase motor, the controller controls to perform an alignment period for alignment of a rotor of the single-phase motor and a voltage compensation period for compensating a voltage change of a DC terminal neutral point between the first capacitor and the second capacitor based on the alignment of the rotor of the single-phase motor. Accordingly, it is possible to stably start the single-phase motor while reducing the rotational torque ripple of the multi-phase motor during the multi-phase motor operation.
