In this post I have explained how to make a simple electric wheelchair circuit using a standard BLDC motor driver circuit, and a couple of high power BLDC motors. Introduction The introduction of electric wheelchair was like a boon to our many differently-abled friends who now find it much easier to move and travel around, […]

High Current Sensorless BLDC Motor Controller using Back EMF
In this post I have explained a high current sensorless BLDC motor controller circuit which does not depend on hall effect sensors for initiating the operations rather utilizes the back EMF from the motor for the sequential input Overview For proper commutation most 3-phase BLDC driver circuits rely either on a sensor based feedback or […]
BLDC Ceiling Fan Circuit for Power Saving
Within the next few years we may find all conventional capacitor-start type of ceiling fans getting replaced with BLDC ceiling fan circuits, since the concept allows the operation to be extremely efficient and save power by more than 50%. Replacing Capacitor Start Fan with BLDC Fan Just as the traditional incandescent lamps today are almost […]
50V 3-Phase BLDC Motor Driver
This yet another versatile 3-phase driver device in the form of IC L6235 from ST Microelectronics allows you to drive a 50V 3-phase BLDC motor with extreme efficiency.The chip also includes all the required protection features built-in, along with an easy to configure external speed control stage. How the IC L6235 BLDC Driver Works The IC […]
Universal ESC Circuit for BLDC and Alternator motors
In this post I have explained a universal ESC circuit or an electronic speed controller circuit which can be universally applied for controlling any type 3 phase BLDC or even an alternator motor. What is an ESC An ESC or electronic speed controller is an electronic circuit which is normally used for operating and controlling […]
Very Simple BLDC Motor Driver Circuits using Back EMF
In this post we investigate what’s a BLDC motor and subsequently I have explained regarding the design of a sensorless BLDC motor driver circuit. BLDC CPU Fans Seen those fast moving fans in CPUs, voltage stabilizers, DVD players, and other similar equipment, which work with utmost efficiency, consuming minimum space, current and yet are able […]
