Specifics about high-power-density motors (HPDMs). Applications best served with HPDMs. Why BLDCs are perhaps the most preferred among HPDM architectures. High power density is an important ...

Electric motors are said to consume nearly 50% of the world's electricity. Industry is focused on replacing inefficient constant-speed drives and motors with microprocessor-driven variable-speed units ...

Next is the H-bridge, which resembles an H (Figure 2), which is used typically with a brushed DC motor. In addition to run, coast, and break operating modes, it can also reverse a motor. Simplified ...

Industrial applications use direct current motors because the speed-torque relationship can be varied to almost any useful form -- for both motor and regeneration applications in either direction of ...

The wide range of electric motors can be a confusing topic even without considering intelligent motor control. This brief overview is for those who think motors are only divided into two categories: ...
