Brushless DC Electric Motor - Motor Control Power Supplies

Motor Control Power Supplies

Typical brushless motors are permanent magnet synchronous AC motors, combined with sensor electronics (detecting rotor position) and an AC signal generator (Inverter) driven by a DC supply. Typical brushless inverters use a switched power supply pulse width modulation to generate an AC drive signal. Various terms are used to refer to the inverters/electronic control systems, including "Vector Drives", and "VVVF drives" (variable voltage variable frequency).

Famous quotes containing the words motor, control, power and/or supplies:

    This biplane is the shape of human flight.
    Its name might better be First Motor Kite.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    The human mind is indeed a cave swarming with strange forms of life, most of them unconscious and unilluminated. Unless we can understand something as to how the motives that issue from this obscurity are generated, we can hardly hope to foresee or control them.
    Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)

    We are in a period when old questions are settled and the new are not yet brought forward. Extreme party action, if continued in such a time, would ruin the party. Moderation is its only chance. The party out of power gains by all partisan conduct of those in power.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    Europe’s the mayonnaise, but America supplies the good old lobster.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
