This application note presents the closed-loop control of a 3-phase brushless direct current (BLDC) motor using a Z8FMC16100 microcontroller. Zilog’s Z8FMC16100 series of microcontrollers are designed ...

This application briefly presents Z8FMC16100 on BLDC motor control. It presents the challenge on creating a low cost controller that can provide power control and battery charging, as well as 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.

TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Renesas Electronics Corporation (TSE:6723), a premier supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, today expanded its motor control solutions portfolio with two ...

Fairchild Semiconductor's China-based Global Power ResourceSM Center (GPRC) has developed a reference design for Brushless DC (BLDC) motor controller applications using SPM® smart power modules, and ...

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 ...

Motors are everywhere—from air conditioners and vacuum cleaners to power tools and industrial equipment. As globalisation and ...

A knob can make a surprisingly versatile interface, particularly if it’s the SmartKnob, which builds a knob around a BLDC motor for programmable haptic response. It can rotate freely or with a set ...

BLDC fans utilize advanced BLDC technology with permanent magnets, a closed-loop controller, and inverter for improved efficiency and performance. They offer quiet operation, high torque, reduced ...

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 ...
