Abstract: A motor control device for controlling rotation of a brushless DC motor of a ceiling fan includes a receiver unit that receives an input signal and outputs a command signal, a magnetic sensor unit for detecting a magnetic pole variation of the brushless DC motor so as to generate a position signal, a processing unit that is electrically connected to the receiver unit and the magnetic sensor unit and that generates a control signal, a motor drive unit that is electrically connected to the processing unit and the brushless DC motor and that generates a drive signal for driving the brushless DC motor, an AC to DC converter unit that rectifies and filters a grid power to generate a first DC power for the motor drive unit, and a DC to DC converter unit that is electrically connected to the aforementioned units and that generates a second DC power.
