AC drive control module

Block diagram

Overview

Our integrated circuits and reference designs help you create alternating current (AC) drive control modules for precise, smooth and efficient control of AC motors. Real-time control, powerful processing, precise analog signal chain and robust transceivers help run fast-control algorithms and field communication protocols.

Design requirements

AC drive control modules often require:

  • Sensor and sensorless control algorithms for smooth torque and speed control.
  • Low-latency, low-bit-error, EMC-immune interfaces for reliable communication.
  • Precise analog and fast digital I/O to interface control/monitoring equipment.
  • High-efficiency, sequenced and supervised voltage rails for reliable operation.
