Permanent magnet synchronous machines (PMSMs) are prevalent in industrial applications due to their robust mechanical dynamics and higher efficiency and power density. In PMSM, vector control contains ...

To help designers with these cost and software burdens, Fairchild Semiconductor developed the FCM8531 analog and digital integrated motor controller. To help designers with these cost and software ...

Vehicular accidents have inspired active research in the design of driver assistance systems in electric vehicles (EVs) that can help ensure safety while driving. However, these systems are not ...

Smart ICs increasingly handle complicated schemes such as field-oriented control. It is no secret that any equipment that either heats or cools is coming under great scrutiny as governments ...

There are many startups and even legacy automakers preparing their EVs. Apart from Rivian, Lucid Motors is probably the one that deserves more attention. If not for the fact that Peter Rawlinson is ...

In traditional direct torque control (DTC), it often has the shortcoming of large flux linkage ripple, large torque ripple, and poor performance in low-speed range. A modified DTC suitable for the ...

The smart motor control module—MMP757188-36 in this example—validates the results. Figure 2 The MMP757188-36 is a motor control module for smart motor applications. Source: Monolithic Power Systems ...
