An Introduction to Brushless DC Motors | Brushless Motor Control with Simulink, Part 1

Explore the fundamentals of brushless DC motors (BLDCs) and their advantages over brushed DC motors. Learn about the difference between BLDC motors and Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMSM). Discover the basics of six-step commutation and learn how to observe back-emf shape of the motor with simulation.

- The inner workings of BLDCs
- How you can simulate a BLDC in Simulink® using Simscape Electrical™ and investigate the shape of its back-EMF voltage
- How a BLDC is controlled using six-step commutation (trapezoidal control)
- How BLDCs and permanent magnet synchronous machines (PMSMs) are commonly controlled by trapezoidal and field-oriented control, respectively
