Abstract
The invention relates to an electronically commutated electric motor. The electronically commutated electric motor comprises a stator and a rotor, which in particular is designed to be permanently magnetic. The electric motor also comprises a rotor position sensor, wherein the rotor position sensor is designed to detect a predetermined number of in particular discrete, rotor positions along a rotational direction of the rotor. The rotor position sensor is also designed to generate a sensor signal representing the rotor positions. The electric motor also comprises a control unit connected to the rotor position sensor, wherein the control unit is designed to actuate the stator in order to generate a magnetic rotary field in dependence on the sensor signal. According to the invention, the control unit comprises an input for a steering angle signal, in particular an analog or digital steering angle signal, which represents a steering angle of a vehicle steering system. The control unit is designed to additionally actuate the stator depending on the steering angle signal.
