Abstract: A motor controller comprises a switch circuit, a driving circuit, and a pulse width modulation circuit. The switch circuit is coupled to a three-phase motor for driving the three-phase motor. The driving circuit generates a plurality of control signals to control the switch circuit. When the motor controller starts a floating phase for detecting a phase switching time point, the motor controller enables that at least one transistor within the switch circuit is operated in a linear region. The motor controller is configured to reduce switching noise of the three-phase motor and increase a success rate of phase switching.

Abstract: A motor controller comprises a switch circuit and a control unit. The switch circuit is coupled to a motor for driving the motor. The control unit is configured to generate a plurality of control signals to control the switch circuit. The motor controller sequentially determines a first phase, a second phase, a third phase, and a fourth phase based on a rotation direction. When the motor controller is in the first phase and the motor controller is unable to detect a phase switching time point within a starting time, the motor controller switches from the first phase to the second phase, the third phase, or the fourth phase. The motor controller is configured to increase a success rate of starting the motor.

Abstract: A motor controller is configured to reduce the motor noise. The motor controller is used for driving a motor, where the motor has a motor coil and a rotor. The rotor is divided into four pole regions N1, S1, N2, and S2 to switch phases. The four pole regions have a manufacturing tolerance and the pole region N1 has a time interval T1. The motor controller comprises a switch circuit, a control unit, a phase detecting unit, and a current detecting unit. The switch circuit is configured to supply a driving current to the motor coil. Based on the manufacturing tolerance and the time interval T1, the time point to detect the driving current is set to be a proportional time PT before the phase switching, where PT/T1 is greater than the manufacturing tolerance.

Abstract: A motor controller comprises a switch circuit and a control unit. The switch circuit is coupled to a motor for driving the motor. The control unit is configured to generate a control signal to control the switch circuit. The motor controller is configured to generate a current signal and a voltage signal. When a current phase of the current signal is at a predetermined crossing phase, the motor controller calculates a difference value between the current phase of the current signal and a voltage phase of the voltage signal, where the motor controller is configured to control the difference value. The motor controller may stabilize the motor and avoid noise by modulating the difference value. The motor controller may modulate the difference value, such that the difference value is equal to a predetermined phase difference.
