  • Patent number: 11923794
    Abstract: A motor control apparatus receives a DC power source through a DC terminal and is coupled to a motor. The motor control apparatus includes a brake, an inverter, and a controller. The brake is coupled to the inverter. The brake includes an energy-consuming component and a switch component. The controller controls the inverter to convert the DC power source to drive the motor. When the controller determines that the DC power source is interrupted, the controller stops controlling the inverter, and the switch component is self-driven turned on so that a back electromotive force generated by the motor is consumed through the energy-consuming component.

  • Patent number: 11463037
    Abstract: A motor control system is coupled to an input power source and a motor. The motor control system includes an inverter, a brake, and a controller. The inverter includes a plurality of upper-bridge transistors and a plurality of lower-bridge transistors, and the brake includes a plurality of loop switches. Each loop switch includes a first end, a second end, and a third end, and the third ends are respectively coupled to control ends of the lower-bridge transistors. The controller is coupled to the first end, and when the controller detects that the input power source is greater than a low-voltage protection value, the controller controls the third end to be coupled to the first end, and provides an upper-bridge drive signal assembly to operate each upper-bridge transistor, and provides a lower-bridge drive signal assembly to operate each lower-bridge transistor.

  • Patent number: 8780509
    Abstract: A circuit protection device is applied to a power supply module. The circuit protection device includes a judgment module and a control module. The judgment module includes a comparing unit, a feedback unit and a reset unit. The comparing unit has an output terminal, a first input terminal and a second input terminal. The feedback unit is electrically connected to the output terminal and the first input terminal. The reset unit is electrically connected to the feedback unit and the first input terminal. The control module is electrically connected to the comparing unit and the reset unit of the judgment module. The comparing unit receives a first reference signal representing the output current of the power supply module and a second reference signal representing the output voltage of the power supply module, and outputs a judgment signal to the control module.
