Southern Taiwan University of Science and Technology 2 Abstract Position sensorless methods for brushless DC motors based on back-EMF zero crossing suffer from a starting problem since there is no back-EMF at standstill. A simple method by which the motor is started from standstill up to a speed where in sensorless methods will be able to detect the correct commutation instants is proposed. 2017/5/23 Department of Electrical Engineering Robot and Servo Drive Lab. Southern Taiwan University of Science and Technology 3 Introduction This paper proposes a simple and reliable method to detect the back-EMF zero crossings. It is further shown in the paper that this method can be used to start the machine as well, once the initial rotational movement is established. In this work, the rotor is first brought to a known position through a prepositioning step. Subsequent rotation of the rotor is achieved by a 120 electrical degree triggering followed by a sequential triggering of the devices based on zero crossings of the back-EMF. 2017/5/23 Department of Electrical Engineering Robot and Servo Drive Lab.

The BLDC motor is driven by a three-phase inverter in which the devices are triggered with respect to the rotor position as shown in Fig. 1. The phase A terminal voltage with respect to the star point of the stator Van is given in as 2017/5/23 Department of Electrical Engineering Robot and Servo Drive Lab. Southern Taiwan University of Science and Technology 5 where Ra is the stator resistance of the ‘A’ phase, La the phase inductance, ean the back-EMF and ia the phase current. Similar equations can be written for the other two phases, as in (2) and (3) 2017/5/23 Department of Electrical Engineering Robot and Servo Drive Lab.

From this, the line voltage Vab may be determined as 2017/5/23 Department of Electrical Engineering Robot and Servo Drive Lab. Southern Taiwan University of Science and Technology 7 These line voltages can, however, be estimated without the need for star point by taking the difference of terminal voltages measured with respect to the negative DC bus.

Southern Taiwan University of Science and Technology 20 Conclusion A simple technique to start the BLDC motor for position sensorless schemes is proposed. This method makes use of line-to-line voltage differences to detect and amplify backEMF signals so that even EMF zero crossings caused by initial rotor rotation can be easily detected. Subsequent device triggerings ensure acceleration and are based on further zero crossing detections. The motor is found to start smoothly from standstill and run up to a speed where a sensorless scheme can take over. Simulation and experimental results are shown, which validate the suitability of the proposed method. 2017/5/23 Department of Electrical Engineering Robot and Servo Drive Lab.
