EPS Motor Operation: Notes

The EPS uses an efficient brushless DC motor. The EPS motor control circuit is composed of a system control CPU, the field-effect transistor (FET) drive circuit, the H type FET bridge, the power relay, the fail-safe relay, the electric current sensor, and the EPS motor. From the input sensor signals, the CPU calculates and duty cycles outputs the appropriate three-phase current for the FET drive circuit. This operation is duty controlled.
