Abstract

A control device () is configured to reduce the commutation angle error ε of a three-phase (u, v, w) EC motor () connected via a y-configuration. The three phases (u, v, w) are commutated via a motor control () including a rotor position sensor () and a control circuit (). The rotor position sensor () senses the relative angular position of the rotor using the neutral-point potential at the neutral point of the y-configuration. The control circuit () is configured to impose a desired field weakening current component on the motor control () for reducing the commutation angle error ε.
