[Davide Gironi] shows us how to implement a sensorless brushless DC motor controller (sensorless BLDC) using an ATmega8 microcontroller. In order to control a BLDC motor you need to know its ...

This article discusses a sensorless technique to control Brushless Direct Current (BLDC) motors using a majority filter implemented on a Digital Signal Controller (DSC). The algorithm utilizes a ...

Texas Instruments is bringing the company’s innovative InstaSPIN-FOC (field-oriented-control) sensorless motor control technology to its most affordable, real-time-control C2000 Piccolo F2802x MCU ...

Electronic enthusiasts, developers and makers searching for a modular sensorless BLDC motor controller, may be interested in a new piece of hardware created by Igor Chekhovtsov and this week launched ...

Brushless motors are ubiquitous in RC applications and robotics, but are usually driven with low-cost motor controllers that have to be controlled with RC-style PWM signals and don’t allow for much ...

STMicroelectronics has announced a complete three-phase motor-control development kit (the STM3210B-MCKIT) based on its STM32 Flash microcontroller, which provides all the necessary hardware and ...

The ability to control the motors’ speed and rotation is the design key of drones, making the electronic speed control (ESC) module an added value and a fundamental part of a drone. In this article, ...

Microchip is offering free source code for sensorless control of permanent magnet synchronous motors, suitable for any of the supplier’s dsPIC digital signal controllers, including the latest ...

STMicroelectronics has released the STM32 ZeST (Zero Speed Full Torque) software algorithm, designed to run on STM32 microcontrollers, that lets sensorless motor drives produce full torque at zero ...
