<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a controller for an internal combustion engine for surely supplying a start motor with electric power required for starting the internal combustion engine that can prevent startability of the internal engine from degrading. <P>SOLUTION: The controller is equipped with the start motor 5, a battery 6 connected with the start motor 5 and a turbosupercharger 8 drivable by an electric motor 8c connected with the battery 6 in which a compressor 8a is provided at an air intake passage 3 of the internal combustion engine 1 started by the start motor 5 and a turbine 8b is provided at an exhaust passage 4 of the internal combustion engine 1. An ECU 30 actuates the start motor 5 at the time of starting the internal combustion engine 1 and controls action of the electric motor 8c so that intake air is supercharged by the turbosupercharger 8. In the case that a factor to degrade startability of the internal combustion engine 1 when starting the internal combustion engine is arisen, the ECU 30 controls action of the electric motor 8c so as to limit supercharge of the intake air by the turbosupercharger 8 when starting the internal combustion engine 1. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT |
