Abstract:
A resolver (10) is excited with a high frequency signal from excitation circuit (16). Outputs of the resolver (10) are transmitted through receiver circuit (24) and input to a DSP signal processing circuit (18), which demodulates the sine and cosine outputs to provide samples of the sine and cosine of the rotor position. The sample values are converted to digital values, which are used to calculate a shaft angular position, which is then used for closed loop position and velocity control of a brushless PM motor (14).
Abstract:
A digital signal processor (DSP) (18, 74) for closed loop velocity or position control receives sine winding output signals and cosine winding output signals from a resolver (10, 73), digitizes the signals and outputs quadrature encoded signals to an excitation circuit (16, 77). The excitation circuit (16, 77) is connected to an excitation winding in the resolver (10, 73) to provide signals for driving the resolver (10, 73).
Abstract:
A fan system includes a motor, a rotatable hub, and a plurality of fan blades. The motor is coupled with the hub by a hollow drive shaft, such that the drive system of the fan system is gearless. The motor is controlled by a PFC-based control module, which is in communication with sensors that are configured to sense parameters associated with operation of the fan system. The control module is configured to react in certain ways to certain conditions detected by the sensors, such that the fan system uses feedback-based control algorithms. A remote control panel is in communication with the control module. The remote control panel is operable to display fault conditions detected by the sensors. Blade retainers prevent tan blades from falling when a fan blade breaks free from the hub. Pins prevent the hub from falling when the hub breaks free from the rotor.
