A system for determining a commutation state for a brushless DC motor includes a controller configured to control current that is applied to drive each of a plurality of phases of the motor. A time delay system is configured to measure, for a given commutation state, a time delay from when a voltage associated with a driven phase of the plurality of phases crosses a predetermined threshold and a voltage associated with a floating phase of the plurality of motor phases crosses the predetermined threshold. Logic is configured to determine the commutation state for the motor based on the measured time delay.
