Abstract
A method for measuring sensorless brushless-DC motor load, adapted to a home appliance, including: accelerating, through the use of a driving circuit, a BLDC motor from an initial rotational speed to a first rotational speed; disabling, through the use of a control circuit, the driving circuit; obtaining, through the use of a detecting circuit, phase voltage information corresponding to each phase of the BLDC motor when the BLDC motor is decelerated from the first rotational speed to a second rotational speed; obtaining, through the use of the control circuit, a first time period during which the BLDC motor decelerates from the first rotational speed to the second rotational speed according to at least one piece of the phase voltage information; obtaining, through the use of the control circuit, a first predicted weight of a load according to the first time period and a first lookup table.
