Acve-Semi delivers the industry's most integrated motor control soluons for
floor care vacuum pumps, scrubbers, and drivetrain motors transioning from
brushed to BLDC and high-voltage permanent magnet motors. The PAC™
architecture delivers a premium one-chip soluon with best-in-class firmware.
BRUSHLESS ADVANTAGES: Increase efficiency, life,
range and max speed, and power, by transioning to
BLDC motors while decreasing heat dissipaon,
maintenance costs, and electrical and audible noise.

SUPPORT: Acve-Semi is a global
company with world-wide sales offices
with applicaon engineering support,
global distribuon, and Independent
Design House (IDH) partnerships around
the globe. Jump start development with
our evaluaon kits, reference designs,
schemacs, example code, and soware
development kit (SDK) for PAC™
BOM & FOOTPRINT REDUCTION: The PAC™ architecture reduces PCB
footprint, component count, and total BOM cost over alternate soluons.
The advantages apply to both 600V boards that ulize an expensive IPM or
discrete gate drivers and DC powered boards where the MMPM and 70V
capabilies offer wide input voltage and headroom to reduce power conversion
and protecon circuitry.
FIRMWARE PERFORMANCE: Acve-Semi's high-quality firmware IP and control
GUI soware reduces development me and me-to-market while providing
rich benefits such as Acve WhisperDrive™ FOC to improve efficiency while
reducing torque ripple and noise. FOC operates at 1050 Hz today and
increasing with field weakening and other techniques. Acve-Semi delivers
ludicrous speed. back-EMF operang up to 30,000 RPM with two pole pairs.
