Zusammenfassung:One object is to calculate the position of a rod of a linear actuator with a high precision. The linear actuator includes a rod capable of moving in an axial direction relative to a housing. The rod is moved by rotation of an output shaft of a motor. A position sensor for sensing the relative position of the rod relative to a preset reference position is provided in the housing. A rotation sensor for sensing the rotation angle of the output shaft of the motor is provided in the vicinity of the motor. The linear actuator includes a position calculating unit for calculating the position of the rod based on a position sensing value of the position sensor and a rotation angle sensing value of the rotation sensor.
