The present disclosure relates to a power generator and method of generating AC or DC power, including the removal of reverse torque and utilizing the electromagnetic coils of a generator stator to harvest the inherent energy available in the magnetic domains of ferromagnetic and paramagnetic materials of pole pieces of a generator rotor. The method comprises: determining an excitation cycle based on a target frequency of the power generator; executing the excitation cycle by providing a current to one or more wires of the generator according to a predefined sequence to align magnetic domains of the salient pole pieces of the generator rotor to produce an evolving magnetic flux field; and routing a resultant current, generated by the magnetic flux field, to a power output. Systems and apparatuses disclosed herein comprise means for carrying out the same.

A motor controller used for driving a motor is provided. The motor includes a motor coil and a maximum rated current. The motor controller comprises a driving circuit, a control unit, a digital-to-analog converter, an operational amplifier, a switch circuit, and a resistor.
