Sensorless AC motor control improves efficiency

摘要

Global demand for both energy and water conservation is having a tremendous impact on the home appliance market. The regulatory standards and recommendations are redefining a new generation of energy- and resource-efficient appliances, particularly washing machines, dryers, dishwashers, and refrigerators. To meet governmental regulations while still reducing system costs, appliance designers are using high-performance digital signal controllers (DSCs).rnA DSC-based solution combines a digital signal processor's processing power with an MCU's functionality and ease of use on a single chip.
