Reference platforms are powerful yet simple-to-use development tools built around leading-edge microcontrollers whose feature sets and performance characteristics are optimized for use as motor ...

This file type includes high-resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. Millions of small electrical devices with built-in motor-driven mechanisms, used daily around the world, rely on ...

Power Integrations created Motor-Expert 2.0 with the design engineer’s needs in mind. The new tool reduces the cost and complexity of BLDC drive design and works with the newly released three-phase ...

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 ...

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.

How current-control loops in BLDC motors improve performance and efficiency while protecting against overcurrent conditions. The differences between current-control loops, field-oriented control (FOC) ...
