Figure 3-5: Stepper motor control circuit. This project uses the ULN2803 octal high-voltage, high-current Darlington array to switch the stepper coils. This chip is readily available for around $0.75 ...

Single-phase and 3-phase AC squirrel cage induction motors need some type of control circuit to initiate a start or stop function. The two types of ladder control circuits commonly used are the 2-wire ...

Here's a simple algorithm that uses conventional microcontroller blocks to control commercially available H-bridges to properly commutate a bipolar stepper motor through a microstepping profile.

When this technique works, using it is simple: put frequency wait for lock get motor speed proportional to input frequency But my spare HC4046 PLL chip appears to have died – which might explain the ‘ ...

Isolating problems in the control circuitIn Part 1 of this two-part series, we presented a 3-phase, 480VAC motor circuit with its associated controls (Figure). We stepped through a logical, systematic ...

It’s a pretty clever system with very simple and flexible circuitry. [0033mer] says he’s used this over twisted-pair wires a couple of hundred feet long, which is pretty impressive.

A simple circuit uses one control device to control bass and treble simultaneously, with a symmetric response that is flat at the center of the adjustment range.
