Model Predictive Control (MPC) has emerged as a pivotal strategy for optimising the performance of power electronic converters and motor drive systems. By utilising an explicit model of the controlled ...

A new family of microcontrollers aims to enhance the precision and performance of motor control and power conversion in consumer and industrial applications by integrating real-time capabilities and ...

Elektor International Media sent me a copy of Martin Brown’s book, Power Electronics in Motor Drives: Principles, Application and Design. Brown worked with Siemens UK for almost 30 years and designed ...

Both software and hardware are parts of all motor control systems such as IGBTs, WBG semiconductors and MCUs. Industry 4.0 strongly relies on motor control for its development but energy consumption ...

With the appropriate driver IC and microcontroller, designers can exploit the brushless motor's declining price, smaller size, lighter weight, and minimal maintenance. As recently as two years ago, ...
