Every day engineers design products that employ single-phase induction motors. Speed control of single-phase induction motors is desirable in most motor control applications since it not only provides ...

Electric motors, which convert electrical energy into mechanical energy, play an essential role in a variety of industrial and robotics applications. Given that electric motors account for ...

The way we control the speed of fan motors or pump motors has tremendously changed in the past two decades with the introduction of variable-frequency drives (VFDs), aka variable-frequency controllers ...

A motor control IC is a convenient way to implement custom motor drive algorithms such as the single-phase induction motor (SPIM) control. A generalized control algorithm, implemented and tested in an ...

Speed control of an AC motor requires a three phase supply that can vary both voltage and frequency. Such a supply creates a variable speed rotating field in the stator that allows the rotor to spin ...
