The EEWeb Design Contest First Edition sponsored by Arduino and Altium is now open for submissions. This inaugural contest challenges hardware design enthusiasts from all over the world to develop an ...

Brushless motors are ubiquitous in RC applications and robotics, but are usually driven with low-cost motor controllers that have to be controlled with RC-style PWM signals and don’t allow for much ...

This application note presents the use Z16FMC microcontroller in sensor-less brushless DC motor. It also discusses ways on how to implement a sensorless feedback control system using a phase-locked ...

There are many products with built-in motors around us, such as air conditioners, vacuum cleaners, and electric fans. As robots, drones, and electric vehicles, which are expected to make a big change ...

TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation ("Toshiba") today announced “TC78B027FTG,” a three-phase brushless motor control pre-driver IC with Intelligent Phase Control ...

Sometimes, you have to drive four motors, and you need to do so with a certain level of control. You could throw a lot of parts at the problem, but you don’t necessarily have to. As [Shaun Crampton] ...

With the appropriate driver IC and microcontroller, designers can exploit the brushless motor's declining price, smaller size, lighter weight, and minimal maintenance. As recently as two years ago, ...
