So does my...dishwasher. It actually generates three phase power (maybe stepped sine-wave?) for its main motor.
I did a double-take when I saw it (during the course of an unrelated fix,) considering it's powered off a simple (US) 120V 15-amp branch circuit.
- URSpider94 6y agoAlmost all modern motors use inverter circuits to generate multi-phase drive signals. Any time you see a product with a “brushless motor”, that’s what it means.
- hyperdimension 6y agoInteresting. I didn't know that. I always figured that was a method for powering (otherwise) AC motors from DC. I never realized it included multi-phase motors.
