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 ...

When making a DC brushless motor controller choice, there are several issues that have to be addressed so that the proper device is selected for a system. If the application is a simple fan or blower, ...

Motors account for at least half of the energy consumed in the U.S. Selecting the right control method for an application lets the motor run most efficiently while maximizing torque and overall ...

The driver is a key factor in determining a motor’s stall performance. Temperature can affect the stall torque of brushless DC motors. Tolerances on the motor parameters can significantly impact the ...

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 ...

Note: This specialization requires purchase of a hardware kit in order to apply your knowledge and skill with real world tools. The hardware will be used to complete the lab exercises across the four ...
