Overview

Battery-powered electric motors continue to gain momentum in the market. Initially, these applications tended to use brushed DC (BDC) electric motors, but the benefits of brushless DC (BLDC) motors are now a strong incentive to switch. Infineon offers motor control solutions for battery voltages up to 72 V for both, including MOSFETs, MCUs, gate drivers, and position, speed, and current sensors.

Benefits

  • Broad portfolio, right product fit
  • Longer operating battery life
  • Improved EMI with slew rate control
  • Reduce BOM count and space
  • Complete design ecosystem
  • Advanced MCU control algorithms
  • Increased system reliability

About

Compared to small, low-voltage brushed electric motors, BLDC motors are quieter, lighter, and offer an overall reduced footprint while providing increased reliability. These improvements, however, come with an increased need for monitoring and control, requiring significantly more complex electronics and supporting algorithms. With industry-leading technology and reliability, Infineon¡¯s extensive portfolio of discretes and ICs offer the solutions necessary to meet these demands across a wide spectrum of electric motor systems for brushed or brushless battery-powered motor-control implementations.

The wider Infineon portfolio further includes variable-speed electric motor controller and drive solutions, including those for low-power stepper motor designs, low-voltage AC induction motors designs and more. Furthermore, with straightforward and easy-to-implement motor control reference designs available for a range of applications, system designers can reduce their time to market.

Robotics applications continue to expand in our daily lives. From service robots to delivery robots, Infineon provides flexible and reliable motor control solutions. Powerful 32-bit microcontrollers with advanced motor control hardware and software combined with industry-leading power semiconductors and sensors accelerate your design. For example, our IMD701A device from the MOTIX? family of integrated control devices features a microcontroller plus 3-phase MOSFET gate drivers and power management for the H42? complete motor control system. Our discrete and copacked power semiconductors help meet the most stringent requirements for form-factor and power density.
