ABSTRACT:
A motor controller for a single phase induction motor (SPIM), wherein the SPIM is driven by a square wave above or below rated frequencies. The square wave may be shaped by introducing one or more notches to eliminate or suppress undesirable harmonics, to reduce the amplitude of the fundamental, to provide desirable voltage control, or to provide desirable voltage to frequency control. The control topology may include switches, main winding taps and switchable capacitors to accommodate selection between line and square wave driving, temporary capacitance increases, or other advantages.
