A line of brushless DC (BLDC) motor control ICs contain 115 Vac and 230 Vac devices that integrate six IGBT bridges for fractional and subfractional HP BLDC motors. With complementing bridge drivers, ...

Electric motors, which convert electrical energy into mechanical energy, play an essential role in a variety of industrial and robotics applications. Given that electric motors account for ...

The folks over at the [Barkhausen Institut] are doing research into controlling autonomous fleets of RC cars and had been using off the shelf electronic speed controllers (ESCs) to control the car ...

This paper discusses the programming aspects of a BLDc controller for an electronic bike, or E-Bike. It addresses issues like Soft Start, Current limiting action at higher Loads and Battery Voltage ...

It’s been a long time coming, but efforts to create Open Source brushless motor controller are finally paying off. The Open-BLDC project aims to create an open source motor controller for the ...

In my previous article, I described the four most common methods for motor and pump control: input voltage, input voltage pulse-width modulation (PWM), external PWM, and 0–5V DC analog speed input.

With its ever-increasing electronic content, the modern automobile places a premium on energy-efficient design. That’s doubly true for hybrid-electric and full-electric vehicles (HEVs and EVs), in ...

motor control based on a six-step commutation sequence; detection of the magnetic angle of the rotor, to perform the commutation at the correct angle (each step corresponds to an angle of 60 degrees); ...
