1. Field-oriented control (FOC), also known as vector control, maintains a constant stator field in quadrature with the rotor field irrespective of any bandwidth limitations presented by the PI ...

Vector Control, also known as Field Oriented Control or FOC is an AC motor control scheme that enables fine-grained control over a connected motor, through the precise control of its phases. In a ...

The STM3210B-MCKIT three-phase motor-control development kit is based on an STM32 32-bit flash MCU with a CortexT-M3 core. The chip has dedicated motor-control peripherals, and the design uses less ...

STMicroelectronics has introduced a $35 starter kit plus a new free-of-charge software algorithm to help engineers and hobbyists implement efficient vector control in a very short time for ...

To meet the demands of modern motor-control applications, which are being driven by the increased need for more energy-efficient appliances, engineers are looking for ways to better control motor ...

The topic of motors and motor control techniques is wide and varied. Part one of this two-part article will cover the principles of alternating-current (AC) motor operation and control. Part two will ...
