Provided is an electric compressor whose manufacturing cost is reduced and in which a motor driving circuit can be positively protected. A temperature sensor is provided in the vicinity of a power semiconductor element whose temperature becomes highest among a plurality of power semiconductor elements and control of the number of revolutions of a motor is performed on the basis of temperatures detected by the temperature sensor, whereby it is possible to change the number of revolutions of the motor by using a temperature in the vicinity of a power semiconductor element in a position under the worst temperature conditions as a reference, and it becomes possible to positively protect an inverter circuit without the need for a plurality of temperature sensors.
