    Abstract: Provided is a highly reliable electronic control unit capable of improving responsiveness of an output current of a switching power supply to load current variation and suppressing power supply voltage variation accompanying the load current variation at low cost and with high power efficiency. Provided are: a calculation unit that performs signal processing; a first power supply circuit that supplies a first power supply voltage to the calculation unit; and a second power supply circuit that supplies a second power supply voltage to the first power supply circuit. The calculation unit has a function of outputting a control signal when a change in a consumed current of the calculation unit exceeds a predetermined threshold, and changes any one or both of a control scheme of the first power supply circuit and the second power supply voltage according to the control signal.

    Abstract: No consideration is given to heat transferred from a semiconductor module to a capacitor via a bus bar module. The heat generated by a semiconductor module (1) is transferred to a bus bar module (3) via a DC terminal (1A) of the semiconductor module (1). As illustrated in FIG. 4(B), the heat transferred to the bus bar module 3 is then transferred to the pressing member 5 via the annular conductor 8 and the bolt 5A. Since the pressing member 5 is in close contact with the second cooler 2B, the heat transferred to the pressing member 5 is cooled by the second cooler 2B. On the other hand, the heat transferred to the convex portion 6A of the housing 6 is transferred to the first cooler 2A via the housing 6 and cooled. As a result, in the configuration in which a capacitor (4) is connected to the semiconductor module (1) via the bus bar module (3), the heat transferred from the semiconductor module (1) to the capacitor (4) can be suppressed.

    Abstract: A first torque calculation unit 114 calculates torque TQ_DC currently generated by a motor 106 based on a DC current DC1. A second torque calculation unit 115 calculates torque TQ_UVW currently generated by the motor 106 based on U-phase, V-phase, and W-phase currents. A torque limit calculation unit 116 calculates a torque limit TQ_LMT1 using a torque limit characteristic map measured in advance based on a current limit DC_LMT1. A torque limit correction unit 117 compares first torque TQ_DC with second torque TQ_UVW to calculate a torque variation degree KP1. Then, the torque limit TQ_LMT1 is corrected using the variation degree KP1 to calculate a torque limit TQ_LMT2. As a result, even if required torque reaches the torque limit, the DC current does not exceed the current limit, and the output of the motor can be fully utilized by approaching the current limit.
