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 ...

Years ago my pal Steve Titus wanted to experiment with some drone rotor designs. He needed a simple motor controller that could operate from 8V to 12V and deliver amperes of current to a DC motor used ...

The A3938 is a three-phase, brushless DC motor controller. It has a high-current gate drive capability that allows driving of a wide range of power MOSFETs and can support motor supply voltages to 50 ...

The HDC2450 is an intelligent motor controller from Roboteq capable of directly driving two DC motors up to 150Amps each at up to 50V. The new controller is targeted at designers of mobile robots, ...

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, ...

Sensor-less brushless dc motors do not have to be hard to drive, claims Allegro MicroSystems. “Start-up and run commutation can be customised for individual motors and loads by adjusting a few default ...

One of the great things about the Gearing Up challenge of the 2023 Hackaday Prize is that it lets you discover tools that you don’t encounter every day. We had never given much thought to spin coaters ...

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 ...
