With the new InstaSPIN™-FOC (field-oriented-control) solution from Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) designers can identify, tune and fully control (through variable speeds and loads) any type of ...

The topic of motors and motor control techniques is wide and varied. Part one of this two-part article will cover the principles of alternating-current (AC) motor operation and control. Part two will ...

Vector Control, also known as Field Oriented Control or FOC is an AC motor control scheme that enables fine-grained control over a connected motor, through the precise control of its phases. In a ...

It is no secret that any equipment that either heats or cools is coming under great scrutiny as governments increasingly legislate efficiency standards. In particular, washing machines, air ...

ST’s EVLSERVO1, a turnkey reference platform for servo motor control, enables sensorless or sensored field-oriented control (FOC) with one, two, or three shunts. It drives three-phase brushless motors ...

Graceful Shutdown: Ensuring the motor and controller are shut down safely when the application is stopped. If the application operates on a multicore MCU/DSP/FPGA, an appropriate inter-core ...
