Abstract
A motor control system selectively energizes a motor winding to maximize the motors efficiency and output torque under conditions of varying rotor speed, winding temperature, and supply voltage. Motor output requirement values and sensor output is used to develop independent parameters in the translation and dilation domain from which optimal turn-on and turn-off or 'conduction angles' are developed. The optimal conduction angles are processed by circuitry to generate actuation signals that selectively control the delivery of energy to the motor winding.
