Energy Management Control System

From Microchip Technology, Inc.
 

 
This application note describes an electronic system to improve the efficiency of certain types of single-phase induction motors. The system is based around the MTE1122 - an energy management controller IC for induction motors. This CMOS device is based on Microchip's RISC processor core and proprietary firmware algorithms. When combined with some external analog components, the MTE1122 will provide an electronic system that economically reduces the operating costs of small induction motors by as much as 58%. It will also allow motors to run cooler and with less vibration. The system operates on single phase 110 or 240 VAC.
