Abstract
An apparatus and method for extending component life in a motor drive having a stator heating mode is disclosed. The current supplied to stator windings is cycled through a set of primary stator power transistors to increase the overall lifespan of the drive, thus preventing premature failure of the stator power transistors by splitting the workload between them, rather than having a single transistor supply the bulk of the stator heating current.
