Abstract: A motor includes a stationary portion including an annular stator centered on a central axis extending in a vertical direction, and a rotating portion including a magnet radially opposite to the stator, and rotatable about the central axis. The stationary portion includes a circuit board axially below the magnet and an electronic component mounted on the circuit board, the circuit board includes a board hole passing therethrough in an axial direction. The electronic component includes a component body portion including at least a portion thereof in the board hole, a first terminal portion extending in a first direction from the component body portion, the first direction being not parallel to the axial direction, a second terminal portion extending downward from the first terminal portion, and a third terminal portion extending from the second terminal portion, and joined to the circuit board through solder.

Abstract: A brushless DC motor includes an embedded memory of a micro computer mounted on a circuit board which can be modified during and/or after a manufacturing process of the brushless DC motor. The circuit board installed on the brushless DC motor includes an IC having the embedded micro computer executing feed back control of the pulse wide modulation and the embedded memory for storing data such as control programs. The circuit board also includes a writing terminal port to which an external memory writer is to be connected. Data is transferred from the external memory writer and stored in the embedded memory by contacting the writing terminal port with a tip end portion of a cable from the external memory writer.
