An electronically commutated electric motor includes a stator and a rotor formed as a permanent magnet. A control unit is connected to the stator and configured to energize the stator to produce a rotating magnetic field. The electric motor further includes at least one Hall sensor configured to detect at least a magnitude of a sensor magnetic field produced by a sensor magnet connected to the rotor. The electric motor also includes at least one magneto resistive sensor configured to detect an alignment of a total magnetic field during a rotor revolution of the rotor and to generate a rotor position signal representing this alignment. The total magnetic field includes the sensor magnetic field and an interference magnetic field superimposed thereon. The control unit is further configured to determine the rotor position of the rotor at least depending on the alignment of the total magnetic field.

An electrical on-board network of a vehicle, having at least two power circuits and an electrical machine allocated to a drive of the vehicle. The electrical machine has at least two phase systems, connected to a respective inverter, and that at least one of the phase systems is capable of being electrically connected to at least one of the power circuits via the associated inverter. A method for operating an electrical on-board network of a vehicle is also described.

Electrical on-board network and method for operating an electrical on-board network

In a method for current measurement in a multiphase current network, a conductive connection is produced between a plurality of the phases of the multiphase current network such that the plurality of the phases is short-circuited with one another. At a detection time, a current value flowing between the conductive connection and a first voltage potential is detected.

Method and apparatus of offset error compensation for current measurement in phase lines of a multiphase current network

The invention relates to a method for current measurement in an in particular multiphase electrical system, in which an electrical load is energized as desired by at least one circuit element and a control unit produces drive signals which act on the at least one circuit element in order to achieve the desired energization of the load. The invention provides that clock patterns of the drive signals are associated with measurement windows for current measurement, in particular for measuring phase currents, and clock patterns are temporally offset in order to obtain measurement windows with a sufficient temporal length. A minimum temporal shift is the sum of a minimum dead time of the circuit element, a minimum settling time of the measuring amplifier circuit, and a minimum sampling time of the analogue-to-digital converter. The invention furthermore provides that the clock patterns are selected taking into consideration a phase selection for the current measurement. Provision may be made for the clock patterns to be selected taking into consideration the instantaneous rotary angle position of the phase vector. In addition, a corresponding apparatus is specified.
