BridgeSwitch - The Perfect BLDC Solution for Ceiling Fans
Ceiling fans are one of the most common and most energy consuming appliances in India, with 40 million units sold each year and more than a quarter of all household electricity consumption attributed to ceiling fans alone. For ceiling fans to meet the new IS 374:2019 standards set by the Bureau of Energy Efficiency, they most likely need to employ a BLDC motor.
PI's BridgeSwitch motor driver ICs enable the design of highly efficient and compact BLDC motors. Ceiling fans designed with BridgeSwitch ICs are already saving 2.4 GW of electricity each day in India.
Our motor drive guru Cristian IonescuCatrina and Mr. Green himself David Chen explain the enormous impact of BridgeSwitch on the ceiling fan market.
