    摘要: A drive control method is applicable to a drive system including a driver, a bus and a motor, the motor being directly connected to the bus in a first connection mode or connected to the driver in a second connection mode. The drive control method includes the driver feeding an electric signal to the motor through the output port and simultaneously detecting its own actual output feature; and the driver determining whether the output port is connected to the bus according to the actual output feature. Upon the output port being determined not to be connected to the bus, the driver starts the motor normally. Upon the output port being determined to be connected to the bus, the driver disconnects the output port. In addition, a corresponding drive system, a processing system and a storage medium are disclosed.

    摘要: A voltage divider circuit is configured by a resistor having one end connected to a positive electrode of a battery configuring a power source and another end connected to a first terminal that is a motor terminal on one side of a wiper motor, and a FET having one end connected to the first terminal and another end grounded. The voltage divider circuit lowers a voltage of the battery to a test voltage that does not cause the wiper motor to rotate. A microcomputer detects a detected voltage that is a voltage output from the voltage divider circuit to a second terminal that is a motor terminal on the other side of the wiper motor via the first terminal of the wiper motor and the wiper motor, and computes a motor terminal voltage, this being a potential difference between the first terminal and the second terminal, from the detected voltage.

    摘要: A motor driving circuit and a motor driving method are provided. The motor driving circuit is used to drive the motor and includes an inverter circuit, a control circuit, a current-limiting circuit, a start circuit and a transient circuit. The control circuit controls the inverter circuit to drive the motor with a motor control current according to a set current limit value indicated by a current-limiting signal, and outputs a steady state ready signal in response to the motor reaching a steady state. The current-limiting circuit generates the current-limiting signal according to a start state signal, or generates the current-limiting signal according to a transient signal. The start circuit outputs the start state signal when the motor starts. The transient circuit detects whether the motor is in a transient state, and outputs the transient signal in response to the motor being in a transient state.

    摘要: An apparatus according to the aspect of the embodiments includes a phase determiner configured to determine a rotational phase of a rotor, a speed determiner configured to determine a rotational speed of the rotor, a controller having a first control mode for controlling the motor by supplying constant currents to windings, and a discriminator configured to discriminate whether a rotation of the motor is abnormal based on the rotational speed when the rotational speed corresponding to a command speed is equal to or higher than a predetermined value in a state where the controller is controlling the motor in the first control mode. When a signal output from the discriminator indicates that the rotation of the motor is abnormal, the controller stops the motor. When the signal output from the discriminator indicates that the rotation is not abnormal, the controller continues a drive of the motor.
