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 ...

This Application Note describes the design of a sensorless 3-Phase Switched Reluctance (SR) motor drive based on Freescale’s 56F80x / 56F8300 dedicated motor control devices. SR motors are gaining ...

Consumers are increasingly choosing more sophisticated and highly&#45efficient electronics. To achieve this, these electronics require motors that deliver high efficiency, wide variable speed and ...

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 ...

The trend in the automotive industry is to replace mechanically actuated systems with systems based on electric motor technology. The traditional brushed dc motor is not suitable for many of these ...
