Abstract:
A brushless DC motor driver for driving a brushless DC motor which comprises at least one coil wherein the control unit is adapted for applying a PWM driving signal to the at least one coil of the brushless DC motor such that a current through the at least one coil is always bigger than a pre-defined undercurrent limit.

Claim (Index 17):
A method for controlling a brushless DC motor comprising at least one coil, the method comprising controlling the PWM signal such that a current through the at least one coil is always bigger than a pre-defined undercurrent limit, and such that the PWM driving signal has a PWM off time between 0.1 and 4 times a time constant of the brushless DC motor;\n wherein the at least one coil has a time constant L/R which is less than 10 \u03bcs, wherein L is indicative for an inductance of the at least one coil, and R is indicative for a resistance of the at least one coil.
