A motor assembly configured to receive an external alternating voltage. The motor assembly includes a motor and a circuit assembly. The motor includes a stator and a rotor rotatable about a longitudinal axis. The circuit assembly includes a state detector and a control unit. The state detector is operable to detect whether an external device is receiving the external alternating voltage The control unit is operable to control the motor based on whether the external device is receiving the external alternating voltage.

Measurement data is managed such that the measurement data can be visualized and recorded in association with a condition set during servo control adjustment. The adjustment device obtains the parameter setting condition and measurement data in association with each other, and saves drawing information based on the measurement data and the setting condition as the same file content.

A shift range control device, mounted on a vehicle for switching a shift range by controlling a driving operation of a motor, includes: feedback controller; a feedback value setting unit; a current sensor; and a current correction unit. The feedback controller performs a feedback control based on an actual angle of the motor and a motor speed as a rotational speed of the motor. The feedback value setting unit sets a feedback value of the motor speed to advance a phase of the motor speed, based on the motor speed. The current sensor detects a motor current which flows through the motor. The current correction unit estimates a temperature of the motor based on the motor current, and corrects a target motor speed which is a target speed of the motor determined based on a request shift range.

An apparatus can include a fan including a control pin. The fan may receive a pulse width modulated (PWM) signal at the control pin. The fan may further control a speed of the fan based on a duty cycle of the PWM signal when the PWM signal is in a first range and, responsive to the duty cycle of the PWM signal being in a second range, transmit information corresponding to the fan to an external controller.

Methods and systems for analyzing and/or calibrating an adaptive steering system are disclosed. One method may include rotating a hub that is configured to engage a steering shaft over a predetermined range of hub angles using a gear and an internal electric motor in response to a control signal. A torque required to rotate the hub as a function of the hub angles may be determined, as well as whether the torque is within a predefined torque window. The method may be used to analyze the overall friction in the adaptive steering wheel assembly. In one embodiment, the method may be performed with the steering wheel assembly fully assembled and the internal electric motor covered and inaccessible. The torque may be determined by calculating the torque based on a current draw of the internal electric motor.
