  • Board-level motor control system with integrated protection and control components
    Patent number: 10594246
    Abstract: A motor control system for selectively controlling power from a power source to a load is provided. The motor control system includes at least one PCB structure and a plurality of protection and control components mounted onto the at least one PCB structure so as to be electrically coupled therewith. The plurality of protection and control components includes a power converter operable to provide a controlled output power to the load, a plurality of switching devices operable to selectively control power flow from the power source into the power converter and to bypass the power converter, and one or more protection devices configured to selectively interrupt current flow from the power source to the power converter during a fault condition. The motor control system also includes a housing enclosing the at least one PCB structure and the plurality of protection and control components.
