TOSHIBA ELECTRONIC DEVICES & STORAGE CORPORATION ADDS NEW THREE-PHASE BRUSHLESS FAN MOTOR CONTROLLER IC ALLOWING EASY SWITCHING TO MULTIPOLAR MOTOR

TOKYO, Sept 29 (Bernama-BUSINESS WIRE) -- Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation (TDSC) today announced the launch of “TB67B054FTG,” a new three-phase brushless fan motor controller IC for home appliances, such as air conditioners and air purifiers, that realizes high efficiency drive and noise reduction. Mass production will start in November, 2017.

Today’s motor rotors are multi-polarized, since higher motor driving efficiency and noise reduction are required for fan motors used air conditioners, air purifiers and other in home appliances. Conventionally, motor control is carried out by a microcontroller and an 8-pole rotor and a rotation-control signal that outputs 3 pulses a cycle.
