DC motors are used extensively in industrial variable speed applications because of most demanding speed-torque characteristics and are simple in controlling aspects. This paper presents a DC motor ...

The ABCs of PID control. Considerations for interfacing elements in the electrical circuit to accomplish those parts of the PID function for position control. Firmware code implementation.

Many applications using miniature brushed DC motors require motors to operate at more than one load point or through specific load cycles. Running a motor at usable load points requires a variable, ...

Special algorithms make ac induction motors respond like variable-speed dc motors for fast PID control. Synchronous dc motors often top the field in high-performance motor controls. This group of ...

Self-regulating systems with feedback loops, i.e., the routing back of the output of a system to its input, have existed since antiquity and have since become an integral part of modern technology.

Specifics about high-power-density motors (HPDMs). Applications best served with HPDMs. Why BLDCs are perhaps the most preferred among HPDM architectures. High power density is an important ...

Many of us will have experimented with brushless motors, and some of us will have built our own controllers rather than using an off-the-shelf part. Doing so is a good way to understand their ...

A high-current quad SPST analog switch can be configured as a full-bridge amplifier capable of driving low-power dc motors. By adding a sense resistor, an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), and a ...
