The method for initially starting the motor improves the reliability to the start of the motor. In particular, even though the external load is at more than a predetermined level, a rotor located at an arbitrary angle can be aligned to an accurate initial position. Moreover, it can prevent the damage of the motor or the damage of the electronic device where the motor is installed. In order to initially align the rotor of the motor, a position on a stationary coordinate system, to which an alignment current of a rotation magnetic field is applied, is varied.

A motor driver system includes an excess current sensing device configured to compensate a sensing value depending on a temperature of a motor, and to output the compensated sensing value, the sensing value being obtained from a current value associated with the motor; and a controller configured to stop the motor when the compensated sensing value exceeds a preset excess value.

Motor driver system and method of protecting motor driver

A motor driver system and its control methods are discussed. Even when a command magnetic flux decreases as a motor operates in a field weakening region, a current angle can be maintained always below a limit value, thereby obtaining the stability of the motor control.

Motor driver system and method for controlling motor driver

A motor driver system includes an inverter configured to apply a three-phase voltage to a motor; an inverter driver configured to generate a reference voltage to the inverter to control a motor speed to follow a reference speed; and a motor protector configured to control the inverter driver so that a value of the reference voltage is equal to or lower than a predetermined voltage value.

A PMA (Permanent Magnet Assisted) synRM and a method for imposing a magnetic force thereon. Magnets are inserted into outer flux barriers of a plurality of flux barriers formed along the radius of a rotor, and bridges or slim portions are formed on inner flux barriers at positions corresponding to the positions of the magnets so that the magnetic force is imposed on the magnets through coils. Since the number of the flux barriers is sufficiently increased while the amount of the magnets consumed is decreased, the PMA synRM has increased efficiency and reduced production costs.

A sensorless motor drive apparatus and a method for protecting and controlling the same. The sensorless motor drive apparatus includes a unit for determining the presence or absence of a position estimation error of a rotor contained in a motor using a current value applied to the motor and a position estimation angle of the rotor. Therefore, the sensorless motor drive apparatus determines the presence or absence of the position estimation error of the rotor without using a sensor, so that it reduces production costs, prevents the motor from generating a faulty operation, and prevents a compressor including the motor from being damaged.
