ABSTRACT:
A method for controlling an inverter uses sequences of predetermined states where each state uniquely corresponding to a set of control signals provided to the inverter that is coupled to a motor. The method includes repeatedly applying a first center null timing sequence of the states while monitoring a zero crossing condition and then changing the repeated application of the first center null timing sequence of the states into a repeated application of a second center null timing sequence of states when the monitoring detects a zero crossing condition. The repeated application of the first center null timing sequence sequentially provides the inverter with a first predetermined sequence of sets of control signals. The monitoring of a zero crossing condition monitors for a zero crossing condition in an electrical current flowing between the inverter and a terminal of the motor. The second center null timing sequence defines a second predetermined sequence of sets of control signals.
