Patent number: 8415907Abstract: A motor control apparatus and a motor control method determine whether the motor is in a back-pressure area so as to provide different rotation-speed control signals. When the fan is in the low duty cycle, a first circuit loop is switched on, so that the fan has more accurate rotation speed. When the fan is in the high duty cycle, a second circuit loop is switched on, so that the rotation speed of fan does not be limited to a constant rotation-speed as the fan enters the back-pressure area. Thus, the fan has larger airflow quantity and higher airflow pressure.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2011Date of Patent: April 9, 2013Assignee: Delta Electronics, Inc.Inventors: Chun-Lung Chiu, Ming-Shi Tsai, Po-Tsun Kuo, Chung-Hung Tang
