Abstract
An integrated motor device with driver circuitry and method of setting and reading configuration parameters of the driver circuitry uses configuration data embedded in driver control signals to set at least one configuration parameter of the driver circuitry.
Claims20
An integrated motor device comprising:
- a motor;
- driver circuitry connected to said motor to control said motor, said driver circuitry being configurable with respect to driver configuration parameters;
- and
- a processor connected to receive driver control signals with embedded driver configuration data, said processor being configured to detect and extract said embedded driver configuration data in said driver control signals to produce a driver configuration signal using said embedded driver configuration data, said processor being connected to said driver circuitry to transmit said driver configuration signal to said driver circuitry to set at least one of said driver configuration parameters.
