An object of the invention is to provide a motor control device capable of realizing a redundancy while suppressing an increase in the number of parts and the number of connection signal lines.
The invention includes angle sensors 102 and 103 for detecting a rotation angle of a motor, MPU 107 for controlling the motor based on a stroke sensor 117 and receiving the detected value of the angle sensor 102, MPU 108 for controlling the motor based on the stroke sensor 117 and receiving the detected value of the angle sensor 103, and communication units 115 and 116 for transmitting and receiving signals between the MPUs 107 and 108. The MPU 107 includes an angle sensor failure detecting unit 114 for detecting a failure of the angle sensors 102 and 103, according to the detected value of the angle sensor 102, the detected value of the angle sensor 103 received through the communication unit 115, and a control angle of the motor created in response to the stroke sensor 117.
