Brief Overview to Brushless DC Motors<br />

Simply forcing the two PWMs to be inversions of each other is not always<br />

sufficient. Since a time delay is associated with turning off the transistors<br />

in the motor drive, there must be a “deadtime” between the deactivation<br />

of one PWM power transistor and the activation of the opposite transistor<br />

in a top and bottom pair. Deadtime can be specified in the deadtime<br />

write-once register. This 8-bit value specifies the number of CPU clock<br />

cycles to use for the deadtime.<br />

1.5 Brief Overview to Brushless DC Motors<br />

A brushless dc motor is a rotating electric machine where the stator is a<br />

classic 3-phase stator like that of an induction motor and the rotor has<br />

surface-mounted permanent magnets. There are no brushes on the<br />

rotor and the commutation is performed electronically at certain rotor<br />

positions. The stator is usually made from magnetic steel sheets. The<br />

stator phase windings are inserted in the slots (distributed winding) as<br />

shown on Figure 1-3.<br />
