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, ...

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 ...

We always think it is interesting that a regular DC motor and a generator are about the same thing. Sure, each is optimized for its purpose, but inefficiencies aside, you can use electricity to rotate ...

These affordable motor-position PID controllers are designed for use with medium-sized brush dc motors. They provide 32-bit position control for dc motors with two-channel quadrature encoders and ...

This Design Idea combines a simple ISA-bus-resident interface circuit; a garden-variety PC; a high-resolution optical shaft encoder; and a PWM-controlled, 0.05-hp, brushed, permanent-magnet dc motor ...

BAMMsat-on-BEXUS is an attempt to create a miniaturised bio-lab compatible with 3U CubeSats, run by academics and students from Cranfield University and the University of Exeter. “Researching the ...
