Abstract

The present invention provides a motor control device that can suppress the decrease in motor efficiency while performing field weakening control. [Solution] The motor control device 100 includes a motor voltage calculation unit 29 that calculates a motor voltage command value Vm*, a field weakening control unit 30 that performs field weakening control based on the motor voltage command value Vm*, and a current command limiting unit 22 that limits the d-axis current command Id* and the q-axis current command Iq* based on a current limiting value Imlim. When the motor voltage command value Vm* becomes greater than or equal to the maximum output voltage Vmax, the field weakening control unit 30 increases the magnitude of the d-axis current command Id* so that the motor voltage command value Vm* follows the maximum output voltage Vmax. The current command limiting unit 22 sets the current limiting value Imlim to the maximum torque current value Itmax according to the rotational speed ω of the motor 210.
