A system comprises host logic and a programmable motor drive coupled to the host logic and configured to drive a motor. The programmable motor drive comprises a plurality of H-bridge circuits and the programmable motor drive is programmable to cause any two or more H-bridge circuits to be operated in parallel.

Programmable motor drive

A motor control device having memory for storing data indicative of a control mode and a pulse width modulation (PWM) value and logic that applies the pulse width modulation value to a voltage provided to a motor if the data indicative of the control mode indicates voltage mode. The logic further controls the voltage applied to the motor based upon a motor set point value representative of the data indicative of the pulse width modulation value when the data indicative of the control mode indicates current mode.
