| 20090096397 | RELATING TO DRIVING BRUSHLESS DC (BLDC) MOTORS - In a three phase BLDC motor the rotor position is monitored by detecting the zero crossing points of the induced back EMF signals BEMF_U, BEMF_V, BEMF_W in the phase windings U, V, W. As they are illustrated, the back EMF signals are substantially sinusoidal but they may in other situations be substantially trapezoidal. The three back EMF signals are 120° out of phase with each other. In order to accurately monitor the back EMF in a phase winding, the driving waveform for each phase U, V, W includes an undriven period P close to the expected zero crossing point. The period P can be a preset part of the driving waveform or can be an interruption of the normal driving waveform in response to suitable interrupt signals. In order to determine the zero crossing points of each back EMF signal, two (or more) samples of the back EMF are taken during the undriven period P and used to interpolate the back EMF signal to determine the zero crossing point. | 04-16-2009 |

| 20110221371 | ACCURACY OF ROTOR POSITION DETECTION RELATING TO THE CONTROL OF BRUSHLESS DC MOTORS - During operation of a 3 phase BLDC motor it is driven by use of a PWM waveform applied to one of the driven phase (curve a). The other driven phase is connected thereto but no driving signal is applied (curve b). The third phase is left floating (curve c). This allows the back EMF in the third phase to be monitored for the purpose of determining rotor position by detection of zero crossing points. The rapid switching of the PWM pulses causes ringing in the back EMF signal indicated for one pulse by the ringed portions | 09-15-2011 |

| 20100141192 | OPERATION OF BLDC MOTORS - The present invention there is provides a method of determining the rotor position in an electric motor comprising the steps of: superimposing one or more alternating signals on to the driving waveform so as to generate one or more oscillating currents in the stator coils; monitoring the variation in magnitude of the oscillating currents and thereby determining the rotor position. Typically, two alternating signals are applied in opposition so as to have no net effect on the torque applied by the driving waveform. Using this technique rotor position estimation can be obtained at start-up from stand-still and at low to medium speeds. The method can be used in applications where a fast motor start is needed under unknown load conditions and can be used to detect when the rotor has passed a certain position that coincides with the commutation instance. | 06-10-2010 |
