    Abstract: A linear compressor includes, a cylinder, a piston configured to reciprocate inside the cylinder, a motor configured to supply driving force to the piston, a detector configured to detect a motor current and a motor voltage that are applied to the motor, and a controller configured to estimate a stroke of the piston based on the motor current and the motor voltage and to determine a phase difference between the stroke and the motor current. The controller is configured to detect operation information of the linear compressor, determine whether to perform a resonance operation based on the operation information, and control operation of the motor to allow the phase difference to be within a preset phase range.

    Abstract: The control module includes a drive circuitry that drives the linear compressor based on a control signal, a detector that detects a motor current and a motor voltage corresponding to a motor of the linear compressor, an asymmetric current generator that generates an asymmetric motor current by applying a current offset to the detected motor current, and a controller that generates the control signal based on the asymmetric motor current and the detected motor voltage. Such a control module may increase a maximum freezing capacity by appropriately (or optimally) designing (setting) an initial value of a piston in a driving area or an operation area (or a high-efficiency driving area) of a compressor by considering the efficiency aspect, and executing an asymmetric operation in a high-load driving area (or a high freezing capacity driving area).

    Abstract: Disclosed herein are a compressor driving apparatus and a refrigerator including the same. A compressor driving apparatus includes: a plurality of switching elements; an inverter for converting direct current (DC) power into alternating current (AC) power according to a switching operation to output the converted AC power to the motor; an output current detector for detecting an output current flowing through the motor; and an inverter controller for controlling the inverter based on the output current, wherein the inverter controller controls the piston so that one end of the piston is fixed at a first position spaced apart from the discharge unit at stroke of the piston during a first period, controls the piston to collide with the discharge unit when a change rate in an operation rate or a position error of the compressor is equal to or greater than a predetermined value, and controls the piston so that the one end of the piston is fixed at a second position spaced apart from the discharge unit at stroke of the piston during a second period after the collision of the piston. Accordingly, control accuracy may be improved and a noise may be reduced upon piston position based operation control.
