Learn the fundamentals of brushless DC motors (BLDC motors)
by from IEEE Spectrum on (#5B6JR)
Fundamentals of brushless DC motors Machines ranging from simple devices to complex equipment make use of brushless DC motors that convert electrical energy into rotational motion.
Basics of BLDC motors include:
- A comparison of brushed and brushless DC motors
- Simulating BLDC motors to observe the back-EMF profile
- Six-step commutation
- Motor inner workings and torque generation
- How three-phase inverters work
