Abstract: A method for controlling a brushless direct current (BLDC) motor is disclosed. The method includes: receiving a constant current; comparing the constant current to a reference current; based on the comparison revealing that the constant current is smaller than the reference current, providing a first speed command to the rotational speed control unit to increase a speed of the BLDC motor; based on the comparison revealing that the constant current is larger than the reference current, providing a second speed command to the rotational speed control unit to decrease a speed of the BLDC motor; based on the comparison revealing that the constant current is the same as the reference current, providing a third speed command to the rotational speed control unit to maintain a speed of the BLDC motor; and controlling, by the rotational speed control unit, a speed of the BLDC motor.

Abstract: A method is provided for operating a resonant power conversion apparatus The method may include charging a capacitor connected to a power source in parallel, and determining a discharge time point and a discharge period of a discharge circuit, where the discharge circuit includes a resistor and a switch connected in series and is connected to the capacitor in parallel. The method may also include outputting, by a switch control circuit, a switch control signal by determining the switch control signal based on the discharge time point and the discharge period, and discharging the charged capacitor through the resistor based on the switch control signal applied to the switch. A resonant power conversion apparatus for performing the above-described method is provided.
