In this paper, one-cycle control (OCC), as a constant-frequency PWM control strategy for current control of a six-switch brushless dc (BLDC) motor drive is investigated. Developed current regulator is a unified controller and PWM modulator. Employing the one-cycle control strategy, decreases the torque ripple resulted from the conventional hysteresis current controllers and therefore, the vibration and acoustic noise of the drive are reduced. Total operations of the system control and OCC strategy are realized by a low-cost general-purpose AVR microcontroller (Atmega8) that leads to a low-cost, high performance BLDC motor drive. Computer simulations using Matlab simulator, have been presented to show the good characteristics of this solution. Furthermore, experimental works show the excellent behavior of developed BLDC drive and agreement with simulation results.
