Systems and methods for calculating motor position, inertia and rest position in sensorless brushed DC motor control systems

摘要

A system according to the present disclosure includes a motor driver module and a motor position determination module. The motor driver module is configured to measure current supplied to a motor. The motor position determination module is configured to determine a first position of the motor at a first time when power supply to the motor is initially discontinued based on ripples in the current supplied to the motor during a first period before the first time. The motor position determination module is configured to determine a second position of the motor at a second time when the motor stops rotating after power supply to the motor is discontinued based on the first position of the motor and a rotational speed of the motor at the first time.
