Abstract

A motor control method for coupled an electronic vehicle is provided. The motor controller controls a motor and is powered by a battery. The motor control method includes: when a main relay of the motor controller suddenly breaks contact, in a first phase, feeding back a surge current into the battery to suppress the surge current by a diode and a first current limit resistor of a first protecting circuit of the motor controller; and, in a second phase, conducting a discharge switch of a second protecting circuit of the motor controller by a control unit of the motor controller, and releasing the surge current to a reference voltage range by the discharge switch and a second current limit resistor of the second protecting circuit.
