GS001 Getting Started with BLDC Motors and dsPIC30F Devices Author: Stan D’Souza Microchip Technology Inc. advance and is implemented mainly in software at high speeds of rotation. The result of phase advance is better efficiency in the BLDC motor operation. INTRODUCTION As a means of reducing high energy and maintenance costs in motor control applications, BLDC motors are seeing a resurgence in applications where efficiency and reliability are important. Microchip has developed a number of solutions using the dsPIC30F and BLDC motors. Sensored BLDC Motor Control When driving a BLDC motor, it is important to know the position of the magnetic rotor with reference to the stator. Most commonly, Hall effect sensors are used to generate feedback on the rotor position. This type of control is called sensored BLDC motor control. Most BLDC motors have three windings. Based on the position of the magnetic rotor, two windings are energized at a given time with each phase conducting for 120 electrical revolution degrees, resulting in six distinct combinations of energization.
