A low power dc motor with electronic commutation. Also known as commutatorless motor, DC motor without commutator. Compared with other types of motors, brushless motors have a very efficient operation, meaning lower power consumption at the same power output compared with brushed DC motors.
Brushless DC motor consists of synchronous motor and driver, which is a typical mechatronics product. Brushless motors have much less friction than brushed DC motors so they can operate at much higher speeds.
