Disclosed is a clothes treating apparatus and a control method thereof. Specifically, the clothes treating apparatus may include an inverter configured to convert a direct current (DC) input into an alternating current (AC) output and provide the AC output to the motor, and a controller configured to control the inverter in relation to driving of the motor.

A control method and a switching device are provided for a separately excited synchronous machine as a drive in a hybrid or electric vehicle. The switching device converts and/or distributes electrical energy within the vehicle, in particular the hybrid or electric vehicle, wherein an asymmetric full bridge is provided, in the bridge branch of which a rotor of an SSM is arranged. Switches are provided in the asymmetric full bridge in order to provide a pulse width modulation corresponding to a desired motor rotational speed and power of the SSM. The device is characterized in that it has a short-circuit branch extending in parallel with the bridge branch of the asymmetric full bridge, by which short-circuit branch the rotor of the SSM is able to be short-circuited.

A motor control device includes a control and computation unit, a compensation signal generation unit, an adder, and a drive unit. The control and computation unit is configured to perform computation processing based on a detected rotational position of a motor and a positional instruction, and to generate a first torque instruction signal to be used to drive the motor. The compensation signal generation unit is configured to generate a torque compensation signal to be used to compensate the first torque instruction signal. The adder is configured to add the torque compensation signal to the first torque instruction signal, and to output an acquired signal as a second torque instruction signal. The drive unit is configured to generate a drive signal to be used to power-drive winding wires of the motor based on the second torque instruction signal. The compensation signal generation unit is further configured to generate a torque compensation signal that switches to a torque compensation value having a predetermined value at a switching timing based on a timing when a rotation direction of the motor inverts.
