DC 260-360V is input to power module and power module switches power supply current according to
rotation position of magnet rotor. The switching order is as shown in Fig. 3-2.

Upper arm transistor is controlled to ON/OFF by 3.2kHz chopper signal. Rotation speed of the compress
is proportional to duty ratio (ON time/ ON time + OFF time) of this chopper signal.
●
Time T in Fig. 3-2 shows the switching period, and relation with rotation speed (N) of the compressor is
shown by formula below;

Fig. 3-3 shows voltage/current waveform at each point shown in Figs. 3-1 and 3-4. First half of upper arm
is chopper, second half is ON, and first half of lower arm is chopper, second half is ON.
