Permanent magnet synchronous motors are synchronous motors in which the field magnetomotive force is provided by permanent magnets. The use of rare earth magnet materials increases the flux density in the air gap and accordingly also in the motor power density and torque-to-inertia ratio: this makes these motors perfectly suited for applications like robotics and aerospace actuators, where it is preferable to have the weight as low as possible for a given output power. The thesis work deals with developing, testing and implementing the hardware and software needed for the motor to operate properly. The system consists of a DC-AC Inverter module with input filtering capacitors, the gate driver, voltage and current sensing boards and the PWM transmitting and receiving cards.
