What are the differences between micro brushless DC motors and brushed motors?

In the drive systems of electronic products, micro DC motors are often used as the core power source. The most common types are micro brushless DC motors and micro brushed DC motors. What are the differences between brushed and brushless motors?

The housing of a micro brushed DC motor is fixed, with a rotating stator that acts as an electromagnet with two poles. In contrast, a micro brushless DC motor uses permanent magnets and switches poles electronically, rather than through brushes as in brushed motors, which is why it is called a "brushless motor."

Characteristics of Micro Brushed DC Motors:

• Low cost, high efficiency, and compact size.
• Replaceable brushes extend service life.
• High torque at low speeds and simple control.
• Applications include electric razors, small appliances, electric toothbrushes, electric toys, and electronic locks.

Characteristics of Micro Brushless DC Motors:

• Without brushes, brushless motors achieve higher speeds and torque, reduced noise, longer lifespan, and better heat dissipation.
• Applications include drones, electric vehicles, industrial machinery, and high-speed, high-power products.
