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.

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 ...

Brushless DC (BLDC) motors are widely used in medical devices due to their high reliability, high efficiency, low maintenance and many other advantages. One of the most popular applications is a sleep ...

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 ...

Brushless-dc motors are taking center stage in medical-equipment design because they last twice as long a competing technologies. • Sensorless brushless-dc-drives have evolved to a point where they ...

Demand for low-cost, robust motor drives has spurred increased use of sensorless vector control of induction and BLDC motors — in everything from consumer products to industrial applications, in ...

SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Power Integrations (Nasdaq: POWI), the leader in high-voltage integrated circuits for energy-efficient power conversion, today released its Motor-Expert software, an ...
