Microchip AVR EB microcontrollers reduce vibration in BLDC applications
As electronic devices evolve, more motors are being used across consumer, automotive and industrial markets. Many designers select Brushless DC (BLDC) motors to increase device longevity and lessen Noise, Vibration and Harshness (NVH). Historically, getting these benefits necessitated sophisticated control algorithms and waveforms outside the capability of cost-optimized controllers. Microchip Technology has launched its AVR […]
