BLDC Motor Control in Demanding Environments
Motor drives and controllers are used in a variety of applications spanning a number of different environments. Military applications include antennas and sensor positioning, stabilized platforms, guns and cannons and turret control, ship steering/rotor control, bomb and missile fins, pumps, and simulation systems. Military and commercial aviation applications include actuators, landing gear, and emergency power units. For civil aircraft, the ongoing transition away from mechanical and hydraulic and towards “more electric” systems has increased the demand for high reliability electronic motor controllers.
