Brushless direct current motors, abbreviated as BLDC motors, are – despite their name – three-phase current synchronous machines: the rotor follows a magnetic rotational field and the movement is synchronous to the AC voltage applied to the windings. This motor type is frequently referred to as "brushless direct current motor" because, in many applications, it replaces direct current motors with brushes (brushed DC or commutator motors).… Topic: Brushless DC motors Functionality More details
