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 motor… ...

Moreover, changing from a stepper motor to BLDC requires a significant redesign of the mechanical subsystems, in addition to developing the control software.

Using high-speed sensorless BLDC motor control in medical devices Introduction Brushless DC (BLDC) motors are widely used in medical devices due to their high reliability, high efficiency, low ...

Power Integrations has bundled three-phase BLDC control software into its Motor-Expert configuration suite for the BridgeSwitch IC family of half-bridge motor drivers. According to the manufacturer, ...

Best of all, the entire package will only run you about $20 in parts–including the position sensor! “Another BLDC motor controller?” you might think. “Surely, I’ve seen this before “.

The use of the FCM8531 controller in this solution allows a variety of reference designs, together with an integrated development environment - the Motor Control Development System (MCDS) - which ...

Toshiba Electronics Europe has launched a three-phase brushless DC (BLDC) motor control pre-driver IC for motors that require high rotation speeds. Suitable for server fans, pumps, blowers and suction ...
