ABSTRACT:
In a method for operating a brushless motor with commutated stator excitation and permanent rotor field, the stator is initially energized partly. Depending on the polarity of the back electromagnetic force (EMF) in the non-energized stator coil at a predetermined time point (t(n)+T.sub.OFF) and on the occurrence of a EMF zero-crossing event in a following time frame (T.sub.MONITOR), the next stator commutation (t'(n+1)) is scheduled. Thereby, three cases (i)(ii)(iii) are distinguished and detected events (.tau.(n-1)) in previous commutation cycles (n-1) are taken into account.
