Abstract

Describes how ASIC design methods can be applied to the monitoring and control of electric motors and shows some of the system requirements and how they can be implemented using standard building blocks. By reference to a design case study, the use of an ASIC in the control of a DC electric motor shows that the functions of a microprocessor-based system can be replaced by a single ASIC
