Brushless Direct Current (BLDC) motors are gaining in popularity and market acceptance. BLDC motors are used in industries such as Industrial Automation Equipment, Consumer, Medical, Automotive, ...

In a Brushless DC (BLDC) motor system, an electronic mechanism is required to commutate the system. Unlike a Brush DC motor system, the permanent magnet is located at the rotor and the windings are ...

Electrical angle alignment of brushless dc (BLDC) motors is the process of determining how to apply electric current to the motor. In essence, it is determining where the magnets are with respect to ...

Both the brushless DC (BLDC) and permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) require electronic commutation in order to create a rotating electromagnetic field, which is needed to turn the rotor. Both ...

CUI Devices’ Motion Group has introduced a new model to its AMT commutation encoder family that supports larger motor shaft sizes from 9 mm to 15.875 mm (5/8 inch). The AMT33 series generates standard ...

Embedded microcontrollers manage dc fans for better cooling while dissipating less energy. The term "dc fan" today normally refers to the type of fan that uses a biphase, brushlessdc (BLDC) motor.

The introduction of three-phase brushless dc motors has revolutionized the reliability and efficiency of fans in consumer devices, but with added complexity. Thermal dissipation is a byproduct of many ...

motor control based on a six-step commutation sequence; detection of the magnetic angle of the rotor, to perform the commutation at the correct angle (each step corresponds to an angle of 60 degrees); ...

Bipolar Hall-effect sensors are used in BLDC motors to detect the position of the rotating magnet. In this example, an eight-pole motor with a three-phase winding uses three bipolar latching ...
