H Bridge configuration is commonly used in electrical applications where the load needs to be driven in either direction. A typical H-Bridge structure is shown below; The current flows through the ...
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 ...
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 ...
There are a lot of cheap Chinese CNC machines out there with okay mechanics and terrible electronics. The bearings aren’t complete crap, but the spindle of these CNC machines is a standalone PWM ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
