How were the PWM pulse widths chosen?

Ether did these tests in my lab. The PWM pulse widths were selected to provide a range, in 50 us increments, that fully exercised each controller; i.e., we increased the pulse width until further increases did not yield increased speed. This limit was different for each controller.

I see what you mean about the axis settings -- while they are all the same physical size, the torque axis tick labels and gridlines for the Victor 888 do not include odd multiples of 0.1 N-m, as the other do. However, if you blink between the graphs for different controllers there is no shift in scale or origin, so they are actually quite easy to compare.
