You can salvage some nice motors out of optical drives but they can be tricky to control. That’s because brushless DC motors require carefully timed signals used in a process called Electronic Speed ...

Electronic speed controller with arduino project illustrate a physical 3-phase motor driver system. It features high current MOSFETS, dual MOSFET drivers, and an arduino nano. A DIY motor driver board ...

This is the first part exploring the motor control shield that I designed for the project where I was doing 3D Printer Filament Measuring with Arduino. The DC motor portion of the project is based on ...

Choosing the right motor and VFD type depends on a variety of factors, however, it is necessary to first look at how the characteristics of a motor change when the speed is reduced —Sponsored article ...

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 ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. This 8051 microcontroller-based control circuit adjusts the speed of a small permanent-magnet dc motor via photosensors ...

Every day engineers design products that employ single-phase induction motors. Speed control of single-phase induction motors is desirable in most motor control applications since it not only provides ...
