An electronic control unit is for controlling driving of a motor having a winding, and includes a substrate, a plurality of switching elements, a plurality of motor relay elements and a connector. The switching elements are mounted on the substrate, and provide an inverter circuit to switch electric conduction to the winding. The motor relays are mounted on the substrate, and are connected between the inverter circuit and the winding. The connector includes a plurality of motor terminals connected to the winding, and is connected to the substrate. All of the motor relay elements are arranged adjacent to the corresponding motor terminals.
