This is yet another project born of necessity. It’s a simple circuit, but does exactly what it’s designed to do – dim LED lights or control the speed of 12V DC motors. The circuit uses PWM to regulate ...

Here is a circuit that will output a PWM wave good for varying the speed of a DC motor. Why is this not going to work? How would you fix it? The 555 timer can’t handle that type of load, and it is not ...

Motor control algorithm which detects the rotor position at standstill, with different pulse width modulation control allows the motor to be controlled independently of the applied mechanical load, ...

Maxon's NEW ESCON 36/2 DC is a 4-quadrant PWM servo controller for use with DC motors up to 72 W. A very fast digital current controller with an enormous bandwidth for optimal motor current/torque ...

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 ...

Based on DMOS technology, the A3936 three-phase brushless DC motor controller/driver boasts of 3A outputs and on-chip commutation logic, as well as PWM motor current control, low RDS(on) DMOS outputs, ...

As a result, remote control technologies are being widely adopted across various sectors. Among the many components used in ...

Graceful Shutdown: Ensuring the motor and controller are shut down safely when the application is stopped. If the application operates on a multicore MCU/DSP/FPGA, an appropriate inter-core ...

One of the more interesting hacks we’ve seen this year is [Carl]’s experimentations with making motors out of PCBs. Honestly, it’s surprising no one has done this before — a brushless motor is just ...

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 ...
