A method for determining zero crossing occurrence in an alternating current (AC) signal with constant frequency of a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) includes: sampling the AC signal to obtain a plurality of data points; starting to count a number of consecutive data points that have sampled values with a same sign in a detection range, to generate a count value, wherein the consecutive data points are included in the plurality of data points; determining whether the count value is equal to a zero crossing determination value; and in response to the count value being equal to the zero crossing determination value, determining that a zero crossing occurs at a last data point of the consecutive data points.
