Abstract

See full text

A controller is capable of improving position detection accuracy during the stopping of an actuator, and controlling the actuator with high stability and quick responsiveness during driving. A first position signal corresponding to an amount of relative movement between the actuator and a driven element is output to a filter, and the filter outputs a second position signal generated by attenuating signal components having frequencies except a specific frequency band. Driving and stopping of the actuator are controlled according to the second position signal. As the specific frequency band, a first frequency band is set in the filter during the driving of the actuator, and a second frequency band is set in the filter during the stopping of the actuator. The first frequency band and the second frequency band both include 0 Hz, and the second frequency band is narrower than the first frequency band.
