Abstract: A controller for a sensorless permanent magnet synchronous motor having a rotor using a permanent magnet, the rotor rotating by a rotating magnetic field, caused by a current flowing through an armature is provided. The controller is configured to apply a pulse voltage for generating a magnetic field vector for searching for the initial position to each of search sections obtained by dividing a target range, narrow down a target range in such a manner that a search section in which a largest amount of current flows through the armature by application of the pulse voltage is selected as a subsequent target range, and repeat the application processing and the narrow-down processing to estimate the initial position.

Abstract: A method for controlling a permanent magnet synchronous motor having a rotor using a permanent magnet, the rotor rotating by a rotating magnetic field caused by a current flowing through an armature is provided. The method includes: presuming, based on a target speed and an estimated speed that is an estimated value of a rotational speed of the rotor, whether or not a step-out occurs; correcting, when it is presumed that a step-out occurs, an estimated angle that is an estimated value of a position of magnetic poles of the rotor; and controlling, based on a post-correction estimated angle that is the estimated angle after the correction, a current flowing through the armature to cause the rotating magnetic field rotating at the target speed.

Abstract: A control circuit of a motor control device estimates an initial magnetic pole position of a rotor using an inductive sensing scheme. When estimating the initial magnetic pole position, a drive circuit applies a voltage to a stator winding at each of L electrical angles (L≥5) while changing the L electrical angles. An absolute value of an electrical angle difference of the voltage applied to the stator winding between an i-th time (2≤i≤L) and an i−1st time is 180−360/L degrees or more and 180+360/L degrees or less. An absolute value of an electrical angle difference of the voltage applied to the stator winding between a 1st time for initial position estimation and a last time before starting initial position estimation is 180−360/L degrees or more and 180+360/L degrees or less.

Abstract: In a motor control device that controls a sensorless-type motor, a controller estimates an initial magnetic pole position of a rotor of a motor by an inductive sensing scheme while sequentially setting a plurality of energization angles. At each of the set energization angles, the controller converts peak values of currents flowing through a plurality of phases of a stator winding into a first current component having an electrical angle that is equal to a corresponding one of the set energization angles and a second current component that is different in electrical angle by 90 degrees from the first current component, to correct the first current component based on the second current component. The controller estimates the initial magnetic pole position of the rotor based on the corrected first current component that is obtained at each of the set energization angles.
