They can be more efficient than induction motors and work at variable speeds. They are also inherently simple. For a time, they powered Maytag Neptune washing machines. Switched-reluctance (SR) motors ...

Unveiled as the industry’s first SRM-SPM power modules for driving two-phase switched reluctance motors, the FCAS20DN60BB and FCAS30DN60BB integrate two HVICs, one LVIC, four NPT IGBTs, four fast ...

Switched reluctance motor (SRM) drives are emerging as a compelling alternative for electric vehicle propulsion owing to their simple construction, robust performance and elimination of permanent ...

How the switched reluctance motor's (SRM) architecture eliminates the need for magnets and rotor windings. Why SRMs are some of the most rugged and cost-effective motor technologies available. A look ...

With the advent of high-speed digital signal processors (DSPs) specialized for motion control applications, it has become possible to control motors without mechanical (speed or position) sensors.

When was the last time you stopped to think about how electric cars actually work? We superfans of the car biz have mostly developed a reasonable understanding of how combustion powertrains work. Most ...
