Six-Step BLDC Commutation

For applications using conventional trapezoidal BLDC control, Adequate Infosoft can develop six-step commutation firmware.

The controller can process Hall-sensor feedback or other appropriate position information to determine the required switching sequence.

Development can include:

Commutation logicHall-state detectionPWM generation Direction controlStartup sequencingSpeed measurement Current limitingFault handlingBraking strategies

The control strategy is selected based on the motor characteristics, load requirements, speed range, efficiency targets, and product architecture.

Field-Oriented Control (FOC)

For applications requiring more sophisticated motor control, we can develop Field-Oriented Control solutions for appropriate BLDC/PMSM motor architectures.

FOC development can include:

Clarke transformationPark transformationInverse transformations Current sensingRotor-position estimationCurrent-loop control Speed-loop controlPWM generationSpace Vector PWM Sensor-based controlSensorless controlParameter configuration

FOC can be considered where the application requires improved control characteristics, efficiency, smooth operation, or precise torque and speed management.

The appropriate control strategy depends on the motor, inverter architecture, feedback mechanism, and application requirements.

Sensorless BLDC Controller Development

Adequate Infosoft can develop sensorless BLDC control solutions for applications where physical Hall sensors or encoders are undesirable or unavailable.

Depending on the motor and application, sensorless control can use electrical feedback and algorithmic estimation to determine rotor position.

Our engineers can develop:

Back-EMF detectionZero-crossing detectionStartup algorithms Rotor-position estimationSpeed estimationCommutation logic Low-speed handlingTransition strategiesFault detection

Sensorless control performance depends heavily on motor characteristics, load conditions, speed range, electrical design, and the selected algorithm.

Integration of Encoder And Hall Sensor

Applications that require rotor positioning can make use of Hall sensor or magnetic encoder or any other feedback instruments.

The firmware reads data signals to ascertain the rotor position and gauge the speed.

Our engineering team designs the necessary PCB interfaces to bring about signal conditioning, interrupt and filtering.

Motor Speed & Torque Control

Adequate Infosoft develops configurable motor-control systems for applications requiring controlled speed and torque.

Depending on the application, the controller can support:

Fixed-speed operationVariable-speed operationClosed-loop speed control Current-based torque controlAcceleration profilesDeceleration profiles Soft startSoft stopDirection control BrakingPreset operating modes

Control parameters can be configured through firmware, a local interface, or an external application.

High-Current BLDC Controller Development

For high-power applications, the controller architecture must manage substantial electrical and thermal loads.

Our hardware engineers can develop high-current power stages using appropriate switching devices, gate drivers, current sensing, protection circuits, thermal management, and PCB design practices.

Potential applications include:

Industrial motorsPumpsCompressors RoboticsElectric mobilityHVAC Automation equipmentPower toolsAgricultural equipment

Final voltage, current, power, thermal, and protection requirements are determined according to the motor and application specifications.

Development of Low-Power BLDC Controller

Our team also creates small-sized BLDC controllers designed for applications with low power capacity.

Systems can be tailored to the following specifications:

Low energy consumptionCompact dimensions of the PCB Battery functionalityEfficient control of the motors Low idle power useWireless communication Portable devices

The applications of such controllers are vast and include but are not limited to medical devices, consumer products, small robotics, portable instrumentation, fans, pumps, battery-operated devices, etc.

BLDC Controller Communication

Currently, modern motor controllers have an increasing need for communicating with other devices.

Adequate Infosoft may integrate various channel protocols, including:

UARTSPII2C CANRS-485USB EthernetBluetoothWi-Fi

These channels can be used for motor configuration or telemetry, diagnostics, adjusting parameters of the motor, updating firmware, and other tasks.

IoT-Connected BLDC Motor Controllers

For connected motor-control applications, we can combine BLDC firmware with IoT connectivity.

A connected controller can transmit selected motor parameters such as:

SpeedCurrentVoltage TemperatureOperating stateFault information RuntimeEnergy-related data

This information can be transmitted to mobile applications, gateways, backend APIs, or cloud platforms.

Remote monitoring and configuration can be implemented according to the application's security and operational requirements.

PCB Prototype & Hardware Bring-Up

Adequate Infosoft supports prototype PCB bring-up and debugging after fabrication.

Our engineers can systematically validate:

Power railsGate-driver operationMCU operation ADC measurementsPWM outputsCommunication interfaces Current sensingVoltage sensingHall sensors EncodersMotor operationThermal behavior

Oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, power supplies, electronic loads, JTAG/SWD debuggers, and other engineering equipment can be used as appropriate during development.
