PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a load drive controller capable of grasping a temperature condition of a separated load and controlling a load current to be capable of controlling the load temperature so that the load can appropriately operate under a high temperature environment. SOLUTION: This load drive controller has a driving means 3 supplying a current to the load 2, a load current control means 11 controlling a load current, a detection means 7 and a load temperature calculating means 12. The detection means detects information concerning a drive condition of the driving means. A load temperature calculating means calculates a supply current value based on detected element temperature information, peripheral temperature information and an internal resistance value of a known drive element and calculates a load resistance value based on the supply current value and an output end voltage value to obtain the load temperature corresponding to the load resistance value. The load current control means the load current so that the load temperature is in a prescribed range. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
