A motor driving apparatus includes an AC-DC conversion unit configured to rectify an AC power supplied from an external AC power source, a DC link unit configured to stabilize a voltage rectified by the AC-DC conversion unit, and a DC-AC conversion unit configured to supply the AC power to a motor using the DC voltage from the DC link unit. The DC link unit may include one pair of film capacitors configured to remove a ripple of the rectified voltage, and the DC-AC conversion unit may include a 3-level inverter receiving the DC voltage from the one pair of film capacitors to supply the AC power to the motor.
