Abstract:
A method for controlling a single coil brushless DC motor, the method comprising at least a first EHP sequence which comprises: driving the motor using a driving signal during a torque generating period, to accelerate the motor, such that during a subsequent generator mode period a phase current goes in generator mode; driving the motor during the generator mode period using a generator mode signal, which allows the phase current to be in generator mode; monitoring the phase current during the generator mode period thereby obtaining phase current information; and determining parameters of a next EHP sequence based on the obtained phase current information.

Claim (Index 7):
A method according to  claim 6  wherein\n the monitoring step comprises capturing current information while driving the motor during the torque generating period wherein a driving current value indicative for the phase current is captured, \n the start moment for driving the motor using the further driving signal is determined based on the ratio of the generator mode peak current value and the driving current value such that the start moment is closer to the first zero crossing moment of the phase current when the absolute value of the ratio is smaller.
