Abstract

A motor controller system that includes an analog switch multiplexer system is disclosed. Specific implementations include a plurality of field effect transistors (FETs) that may be configured to be operatively coupled with one or more phases of a motor. Each of the plurality of FETs may include a gate, an analog switch multiplexer coupled with each of the gates of the plurality of FETs and with an analog output, and a digital control block coupled with the analog switch multiplexer that may be configured to send a multiplexer select control signal to the analog switch multiplexer in response to receiving a serial peripheral interface signal.
