Abstract
A system includes a motor-driven component, a motor configured to operate the motor-driven component, and a motor drive circuit configured to power the motor. The motor drive circuit includes at least one complementary stage, where each stage includes a first transistor and a second transistor. During operation of the motor drive circuit, the first transistor is switched on when the second transistor is switched off. The system includes a controller communicatively coupled to the motor drive circuit. A load condition associated with the component is monitored. Based on the load condition, the controller determines whether the component is operating at a light load condition. If the component is operating at the light load condition, a switching frequency of each of stages is changed from a first switching frequency to a second switching frequency, which is less than the first switching frequency.
