Some DSPs even incorporate motor control peripherals such as PWM outputs, a/d converters, flash memory, and on-chip CAN bus. Keeping pace with hardware, and just as important, are software advances.

The process of vector control, also referred to as field-oriented control, (FOC) allows an AC motor to be controlled like a DC motor. This control method applies one or both transforms — the Clarke ...

Toshiba America Electronic Components has expanded its TX03 MCU series with the announcement of the TMPM375FSDMG MCU. The new MCU is based on the ARM Cortex-M3 core and features a vector engine ...

In the last step of FOC-algorithm-based motor control, the role of space vector modulation (SVM) assumes a lot of importance. SVM’s role is to generate the PWM signals that are fed into the inverter ...

Vector motor control, on the other hand, involves a more complex model of the motor characteristics which separates the management of the voltage and the frequency, providing greater control.

Toshiba has got together with development board maker Mikroe to create a platform for its TB9M003FG automotive three-phase motor control and driver IC. AEC-Q100 Grade 0 qualified, the IC has a 32bit ...

“Adopting vector control as the motor control method enables BLH2D to control the current phase,” said Oriental Motor. “This allows processing of regenerative power and torque limiting” and “BLH2D can ...
