摘要:
A control system for an electric motor used to provide mechanical power to a power steering system in a vehicle. The motor is of the two-phase type with an independent winding for each phase, or of the three-phase type with two independent stator windings. Two inverters are provided, one for each winding. Each inverter provides AC current to run the motor. If a fault is detected in an inverter or its stator winding, current is terminated to that inverter, and the motor is run using the other winding. In addition, if the vehicle battery is installed with incorrect polarity, components within the inverters can be destroyed. The invention detects the incorrect polarity, and blocks current to the inverters.
