The microprocessor is a computer processor that integrates the functions of the central processing unit (CPU) on a single integrated circuit (IC) or at most a few integrated circuits. The microprocessor is a digitally-integrated, register-driven, multifunctional, clock-based circuit that accepts input binary data, processes it according to instructions stored in its memory, and provides output results. Microprocessors include combinational logic and sequential digital logic. Microprocessors use numbers and symbols that are represented in the binary numbering system. Using the recent improvements of power transistors as well as microprocessors it is now possible to develop high-dynamic-performance AC drives of moving contacts using synchronous or asynchronous motors. Each schemes acquire particular strengths. A general control principle, depending on field or even rotor orientation, is explained which has been recognized with a sophisticated microcomputer, wherever all the signal processing, such as modulation from the inverter, is completed by software. Extensive tests have been performed with motors to compare the actual characteristics in the various types of drives.
