Abstract: The present invention discloses a controller and a method for improving motor driving efficiency. According to the present invention, multiple control parameters are inputted to the controller so that the controller can adjust timings of PWM driving signals for driving the motor to advance or delay the turned-ON or turned-OFF points, whereby the motor is driven efficiently.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a controller and a method for adaptively adjusting motor driving current waveforms. According to the present invention, the controller receives multiple different control parameters which may be determined according to the characteristics of a fan to be controlled, and adjusts the delayed ON time and advanced OFF time of a PWM driving signal based on the control parameters and the present rotation speed of the fan motor, so that the fan operates under an optimum driving current waveform.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a 3-phase brushless DC motor controller, which comprises: a unit for generating a PWM signal; an ADC for converting a back electromotive force (BEMF) signal from an analog form into a digital form; a synchronization and extraction unit operating in synchronization in part with the PWM signal for extracting the digital BEMF signal to obtain a corresponding ZCP signal; and a unit for judging whether a commutation operation is to be performed according to a change of the corresponding ZCP signal. A wait instruction and a delay instruction help to accurately acquire the digital BEMF signal.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a real-time responsive motor control system comprising a central MCU (Microcontroller Unit) core logic and at least one PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) MCU core logic. The central MCU core logic takes care of all interrupt events. The PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) MCU core logic is dedicated to the transformation of PWM signals so that the PWM signals output to a motor device are highly accurate. Further, the central MCU core logic may directly control the PWM MCU core logics so that the switching timing of the PWM signals is even more accurate. The present invention provides a modularized hardware architecture with flexible software control. The system design is simple and the associated cost is reduced.
