  • Patent number: 7592852
    Abstract: A method for controlling a driving circuit. A first switch unit comprises a first switch and a second switch and a second switch unit comprises a third switch and a fourth switch. The first and second switch units are alternately turned on, and each switch is coupled to a blocking element in parallel. The first and second switches of the first switch unit are turned on simultaneously, and the first switch is then turned off. The second switch is turned off when the third and fourth switches are simultaneously turned on.

  • Patent number: 7459876
    Abstract: Motors comprising stators and rotors having a plurality of north poles and south poles and methods of controlling the same. A first sensor and a second sensor are provided. The first and second sensors are disposed on the stator in a manner that the first and second sensors never simultaneously detect boundaries between the north and south poles during rotation of the rotor. If any one of the first and second sensors continuously detects a north pole or a south pole for a predetermined duration, the motor is shut off.
