This is the first part exploring the motor control shield that I designed for the project where I was doing 3D Printer Filament Measuring with Arduino. The DC motor portion of the project is based on ...

Permanent magnet dc motors need a chunky inductor in series with them if they are fed from an SCR (thyristor) based mains power controller. It is (probably!) possible to safely interface an Arduino to ...

I have been trying to fix a little old milling machine I bought (and here), and needed a replacement motor controller. It is a Clarke DCM10, a variant of Sieg’s X1, sometimes knows as a ‘micro mill’.

Developers, electronic enthusiasts and makers looking to control up to 2 DC brushed motors independently using a single board may be interested to know that the RageBridge v2 created by Equal Zero ...

Running a brushed motor in muddy or dusty environments takes a toll on controllers, with both heavy back EMF and high stall currents. This explains one of the challenge in Europe’s Hacky Racer series, ...

When making a DC brushless motor controller choice, there are several issues that have to be addressed so that the proper device is selected for a system. If the application is a simple fan or blower, ...

Maxon Precision Motor's newly released DC servo motor controller, the ESCON 50/5 OEM module. This mini OEM plug in module is a 4 quadrant Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) servo motor controller that can ...
