Abstract
Described are methods and devices for determining the rotary orientation of a motor using a resolver signal derived from the rotary orientation of the motor. In particular, the methods and devices utilize a single control system that is arranged both for triggering and for evaluating the resolver signal.
Claims1
A device for determining a rotary orientation of a motor, comprising:
- a resolver facility with a resolver signal output for outputting a signal derived from the rotary orientation:
- a feeding connection to feed the resolver signal to a single control system, the control system having a trigger output to trigger and an evaluating input to receive an evaluation signal for evaluating the resolver signal;
- a microcontroller or digital signal processor receiving at least two output signals from the resolver facility in parallel and having a single output to present the trigger signal to the resolver;
- and
- an evaluating unit to evaluate the resolver output signals through executing a tracking procedure, wherein
- the tracking procedure is based on:
- F(s)=Φ(s)/φ(s)=K1*(1+K2*s)/(s2+K1*K2*s+K1),
- wherein Φ is the estimated rotor angle, φ is the actual rotor angle, K1 and K2 are filter parameters and s is a complex frequency.
