DMOC445 Manual and Operating Instructions
3. Overview
The Azure Dynamics Digital Motor Controller (DMOC) is a rugged traction inverter for
controlling 3-phase AC motors and generators. A flexible control-software architecture
allows for application-specific customization by loading software application modules.
These application modules communicate with the motor-control core and implement the
interface to the higher level controls or directly to the driver inputs and outputs. The
application module can be as simple as a CAN communication layer or as complex as to
provide a complete electric vehicle control. The DMOC is based on state-of-the-art
control techniques and electronic devices, and offers several layers of protections to
prevent safety critical conditions.

Typical applications for the DMOC include the following:
• Traction drive for EVs, HEVs, and FCEVs
• Generator controller for Hybrid APUs
• Generator controller for Distributed Generation
• 3-phase motor controller for industrial applications
Note that this document only addresses the generic DMOC features. Application specific
details can be found in the following manuals which are revised and distributed
separately:

The DMOC is designed to operate in a system as illustrated in the figure below.
On the DC-side, it is connected to an energy storage system (ESS) such as a battery
pack or super capacitor bank. In general, the ESS needs to be able to sink and source
power. The DMOC can be used with sources that can only source power, such as fuel-
