Variable speed motor drive with integrated motor heating systems and methods

The present disclosure includes techniques for implementing a variable speed drive (VSD) in an environmental conditioning system to facilitate mitigating or eliminating system faults. The variable speed drive drives a motor during on-cycles and heats motor windings of the motor during off-cycles. The variable speed motor drive includes a rectifier that converts alternative-current (AC) power input to a direct-current (DC) power output, a DC bus that is coupled to the rectifier and includes a DC bus transistor, and an inverter. The DC bus transistor pre-charges a DC capacitor of the DC bus to drive the motor during on-cycles and receives a gate pulse with a duty cycle based on a differential temperature, where the gate pulse heats the motor windings. The inverter receives the gate pulse applied to the DC bus transistor and transmits it a motor winding to prevent moisture on the motor winding.

INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, CONTROL CIRCUIT, AND INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD

There is provided an information processing device including a voltage detection unit configured to monitor a voltage value of a signal output at a predetermined timing, and a signal control unit configured to stop output of the signal if the voltage value after a predetermined time elapses from when the voltage value detected by the voltage detection unit exceeds a first value does not exceed a second value greater than the first value.

Packet based communication using low voltage drive circuits

A method for a low voltage drive circuit (LVDC) begins by receiving data from one or more other low voltage drive circuits (LVDCs) using a bus with varying loading at one or more frequencies and continues by sampling one or more data values of the data to produce a sampled digital data value, converting the sampled digital data value to a binary string and writing the binary string to a buffer. The method continues by writing one or more additional binary strings to the buffer to form a digital word, outputting the digital word to a digital converter circuit and formatting the digital word to create a formatted digital word. The method continues by writing the formatted digital word to a second buffer, writing additional formatted digital words to the second buffer to form a data packet and finally, outputting the data packet to a host device.
