摘要: A motor drive circuit comprising: a motor bridge, comprising a bridge arm comprising upper and lower switches for each motor phase, which may be selectively closed to modulate voltage applied to the respective phases to drive signals from a motor control circuit, at least one solid-state-phase-isolation-relay (SSPIR) provided in series in an electrical path connecting a respective phase of the motor to a respective bridge arm, the SSPIR being closed in normal operation so that current can flow in the phase and held open in a fault mode of operation to prevent current flow, a monitoring arrangement for monitoring a current waveform in the phase to identify when it is safe to open the SSPIR without causing damage to the SSPIR due to an avalanche mode, and a control circuit that applies a voltage to each SSPIR that is sufficient to hold the SSPIR closed in normal operation is only opened when the current is in a safe operational area.

摘要: A rotating electric machine apparatus includes a rotating electric machine and a full-bridge inverter. The full-bridge inverter includes first high-side switches, first low-side switches, second high-side switches, and second low-side switches. The rotating electric machine apparatus includes: first and second neutral point switches; a full-wave driving unit that performs a full-wave driving process in which switching control of the switches is performed in a state in which the first and second neutral point switches are turned off; a half-wave driving unit that performs a half-wave driving process in which switching control of the first high-side switches and the second low-side switches is performed in a state in which the first and second neutral point switches are turned on, and the first low-side switches and the second high-side switches are turned off; and an executing unit that selects and performs either of the full-wave driving process and the half-wave driving process.

摘要: Disclosed are a variable power motor and an intelligent controller therefor. The motor includes a rotor, a stator, a housing, stator windings and terminals. The stator windings are formed by embedding the same stator core into multiple series windings. Various series nodes of the stator windings, each serving as a power supply terminal with different power, are respectively led out individually. The various series windings of the stator respectively control, by means of the intelligent controller, the switching on and off of multiple switching switches. The soft-start and soft-stop of the motor can be realized, and a load is automatically tracked to regulate the power of the winding during operation, so as to obtain a power-saving effect.

摘要: Systems and methods for generating currents in a plurality of CTS that may be independently controlled by a microprocessor. In some cases, a DC power source (such as a battery) is connected to each inverter. In other cases, a rechargeable DC power source (such as a capacitor) is connected to each inverter. Multiple controllable, turn-less structures may be provided in a suitable configuration with a single, main control processor or alternatively, with both a main control processor and several intermediate level command modules, each intermediate level command module coupled to a respective one of the inverters to control currents through each conductor of the respective inverter.

摘要: A circuit includes phase windings to receive alternating current (AC) line voltage. The circuit has a direct current (DC) power supply, a power switch circuit comprising at least one power switch, and a control circuit to turn off the power switch circuit when a rotor associated with the circuit is in an identified rotor position, rotor magnet polarity, or speed relative to the AC line voltage. The circuit also has at least one non-collapsing DC power supply component to prevent the DC power supply from collapsing when the at least one power switch is on and conducting during at least a portion of a cycle. One or more of the DC power supply, power switch circuit, and control circuit may be at a midpoint of the phase windings.

摘要: An isolation switch driver includes a control circuit to control conduction of an isolation switch and a voltage monitor circuit to monitor a control voltage coupled to the isolation switch and to generate a fault indication if the control voltage is less than a predetermined threshold. The isolator driver can drive an isolation switch coupled between a bridge network and a motor in a motor control system. The monitor circuit can monitor a voltage between a gate terminal and a source terminal of the isolation switch and include a resistive element coupled between the gate terminal and the source terminal to generate a current proportional to the VGS voltage, a current mirror to shift a level of the current to a reference potential, and a comparator to compare the level-shifted current to a threshold current.
