The MCF8315C drives the motor using Field Oriented Control (FOC) as shown in Figure 6-33. In closed loop operation, the motor angle (Ɵest) and speed (ωest) are estimated using the back-EMF observer. The speed and current regulation are achieved using PI control loops. In order to achieve maximum efficiency, the direct axis current is set to zero (Id_ref = 0), which will ensure that stator and rotor field are orthogonal (90o out of phase) to each other.
