ABSTRACT:
A spindle motor of a disk drive is controlled in a switched voltage mode. A power bus supplies a voltage to the spindle motor. The power bus voltage is subject to variations while the spindle motor is being driven. An uncompensated motor voltage signal is modified to provide a compensated signal having a modified duty cycle. The modified duty cycle is inversely proportional to the variations in the power bus voltage. Commutation logic uses the compensated signal to generate commutation commands, which cause a power driver stage to energize the windings of the spindle motor.
