ABSTRACT:
Circuitry for controlling a motor, such as a brushless motor (BLM), is disclosed. The circuitry may comprise one or more inputs for receiving rotor position signals from one or more Hall effect sensors that detect the position of, for example, a BLM rotor. The circuitry may also comprise an input for receiving a pulse width modulated speed control signal. The circuitry generates one or more drive signals, each drive signal having a plurality of driving intervals. Each drive signal may control power switches during its driving intervals, the power switches being coupled to electromagnets of the BLM. The circuitry may cause the driving intervals of a first drive signal to be temporally spaced from the driving intervals of a second drive signal.
