    Abstract: A motor control system includes a first MCU and a second MCU. The first MCU includes an error detection unit, a resolver digital converter, and a first PWM generation unit. The resolver digital converter includes an encoder unit, which generates encoder pulses based on angle information and outputs the encoder pulses to the second MCU. The error detection unit outputs an error signal to the second MCU, when an error is detected in the first MCU. The first MCU controls the resolver digital converter to operate using a backup clock supplied from the second MCU.
