    Abstract: A fan motor braking apparatus includes a fan motor, a conversion circuit and a motor driver circuit. The conversion circuit is respectively and electrically connected to the fan motor and the motor driver circuit. The conversion circuit includes bridge structures. After the fan motor starts operating, the motor driver circuit receives at least one fan status signal and determines whether the fan motor braking apparatus enters a braking status or not according to the at least one fan status signal. When the fan motor braking apparatus enters the braking status, the motor driver circuit outputs a braking control signal to the conversion circuit so that the bridge structures of the conversion circuit generate a brake effect on fan motor, wherein the at least one fan status signal includes an external speed-control signal and a transition voltage signal of the fan motor.

    Abstract: A fan motor braking apparatus and a method of controlling the same provide a braking protection before the fan motor revolves. The fan motor braking apparatus includes a conversion circuit, a braking enable circuit, a braking release circuit, and a fan motor startup circuit. The conversion circuit has a plurality of power switch elements electrically connected to the fan motor. The braking enable circuit is connected to the conversion circuit and the braking release circuit is connected to the braking enable circuit. The fan motor startup circuit receives an external DC voltage. The braking enable circuit generates a braking control signal to turn on the power switch elements when the braking enable circuit receives the external DC voltage, thus braking the fan motor.

    Abstract: A method of adaptively controlling a brushless DC motor includes steps of: controlling the brushless DC motor rotating at a first speed according to an operation curve, accumulating a running time of the brushless DC motor, estimating a remaining used time of a bearing of the brushless DC motor according to the accumulated running time, executing an alarm operation when the remaining used time is less than a predetermined time, and decreasing the speed of the brushless DC motor to run at a second speed to prolong the used time of the bearing.
