Power supply requirements for driving a PM servo motor?


Boss

Power supplies driving "normal" loads are generally straightforward.
What are the requirements or pitfuls of using a switch mode PSU driving a pulse width modulated speed controller with a PM motor load?
I assume during start-up and running with and increasing motor load is just typical loading, but what about when suddenly reducing the motor loading, could this cause problems with the back EMF generated?
