Motor Control

Industrial Motor Control Solutions

With drives and motor/motion control systems in wide use across Industrial, Automotive, Medical, Avionics, and Defense segments, motors account for nearly 45% of the world's energy consumption. Examples of motor/motion control include factory and process automation, assembly/packaging, elevator control, robotics, EV/HEV powertrains, flight control systems, and more.

With increasing performance required to monitor and drive more efficient power electronics used in multi-axis motor control and high-RPM motor control applications, Microsemi offers a flexible motor control IP suite and reference design for our SmartFusion2 and IGLOO2 FPGAs. The performance of FPGA-based implementation is deterministic and bounded. The synchronous nature of these implementations add additional assurance that the timing is clock frequency-based and does not vary. Moreover, when Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) is adopted for multi-axis controllers, there is fairness as each motor has the same time slot length, thus being deterministic. On the power electronics side, Microsemi offers quality-leading SiC diodes and MOSFET products.
