This source code supports Microchip's Application Note AN1160: Sensorless BLDC Control with Back-EMF Filtering Using a Majority Function, which describes a sensorless Brushless Direct Current (BLDC) ...

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 ...

This application note describes a three-phase brushless DC (BLDC) motor control using a sensorless algorithm. This cost-effective solution is based on the Freescale Semiconductor MPC5606B device, a ...

More server manufacturers are adopting 54-V brushless dc motors over traditional 12-V BLDCs to achieve significant savings on a couple of fronts. Nearly everyone has heard the term “cloud-based ...

There seems to be some confusion within the industry about the terms “permanent magnet synchronous motors” (PMSMs) and “brushless DC (BLDC) motors”. I’ve talked with several different application ...

We often think of the electric light as being the “killer app” for electricity. Sure, the telegraph was also fairly important, but it didn’t enter every home the way the electric light did -- not ...

The home-appliance market is a large user of electric motors in both large systems (washers, dryers, refrigerators, HVAC, and dishwashers) and smaller units (mixers, vacuum cleaners, and fans). Many ...
