ABSTRACT:
A technique for determining an alignment error of a Hall sensor location in a brushless DC motor drive, by measuring the back EMF waveform, preferably while the motor is coasting. According to the technique, an angular offset is calculated between a selected BEMF waveform and a selected Hall signal. Such offsets are preferably calculated for each phase individually. The offsets may be advantageously stored in the motor control unit and used to adjust the output motor control signals for maximum torque.
