Summary:A method of thyristor gating management to allow operation of a
cycloconverter-link brushless DC motor drive from a variable-voltage
variable-frequency (VV-VF) source is presented. Multiple microprocessors
are utilized to assure that no compromise in signal processing priority
is necessary as both motor and source frequency vary independently over
a wide range. The architecture and logic of the design are discussed.
Some experimental results are presented for operation of a laboratory
model of the drive system on a load simulator
