Many different types of induction motors have been available on the market for decades, including ac induction, brushed dc, and brushless dc (BLDC) motors. Each type has advantages and disadvantages.

This application note presents Z16FMC microcontroller used to control 3-phase brushless BLDC motors in a sinusoidal PWM modulation mode. It discusses the ways in which to implement sinusoidal PWM ...

Brushless DC (BLDC) motors are standard fare in low-precision, speedy RC applications. The control schemes needed to run them slowly or precisely go deep into motor theory and might put these motors ...

For IGBTs, the on-state voltage drop is a critical specification to consider. This drop includes both the diode drop across ...

The MC73110 motor-control IC features an onchip a/d converter that digitizes analog current feedback, and provides multiple current sensing methods to maximize motor performance. Features of the unit ...

NUREMBERG, Germany--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Freescale Semiconductor (NYSE: FSL) today announced its new S12 MagniV 16-bit S12ZVM family of mixed-signal microcontrollers (MCUs). The S12ZVM is the most highly ...

Toshiba Electronics Europe has launched a three-phase brushless DC (BLDC) motor control pre-driver IC for motors that require high rotation speeds. Suitable for server fans, pumps, blowers and suction ...

As motorized equipment accounts for more than 40% of global electricity consumption, motor efficiency is an extremely important issue for environmentally focused sustainable development. As a leading ...
