Abstract

The analysis and simulation are the method to study the behavior, response, and specification of the driver device. This paper proposes brushless DC drive which using the vector control technique. The encoder is used detect the rotor position and decode to Three-phase step signal. The step signal is modulated with triangle signal and change to the pulse width modulation (PWM) signal. The PWM signal is used for control the input power of the motor based on the vector control technique. The experimental results of the driver circuit and motor response performed under the following condition: as the motor was started, change the load torque, and vary the supply voltage. The experimental performs with a dynamometer and the test results are compared to the simulation method is the same result.
