This Application Note describes the design of a sensorless 3-Phase Switched Reluctance (SR) motor drive based on Freescale’s 56F80x / 56F8300 dedicated motor control devices. SR motors are gaining ...

For direct-drive permanent magnet synchronous motor washing machines, the latest addition to the iMOTION family, a sensor-less control design platform, includes a mixed-signal controller, intelligent ...

A new motor driver featuring pulse-width modulation (PWM) and serial interfaces ensures quiet and robust motor operation in industrial and consumer applications. The motor driver IC, supporting both ...

Brushless DC (BLDC) motors offer many operating attributes in performance and controllability, but they may require a position (rotation) sensor such as an encoder, resolver, or Hall-effect device to ...

Researchers develop a sensorless boost PFC method delivering near 0.9998 power factor and low distortion, enabling smaller and more reliable power supplies for consumer electronics. Single-phase power ...
