Today's motors are increasingly driven via electronic controls, which offer better control of speed, position, and torque, as well as much greater efficiency, rather than via direct connection to ...

While microcontroller- and DSP-based approaches for implementing advanced motor control techniques, such as field-oriented control (FOC) for 3-phase motors, have gone a long way to simplify ...

A range of automotive-grade Mosfet pre-driver ICs for in-vehicle motor control applications is now available from Allegro MicroSystems Europe. The device family, which will operate over a junction ...

A teacher I know is stuck, with only npn transistors in the supply cupboard and the need to create a reversible motor drive for an Arduino project. Reversing ‘bridges’ have four switches (relay ...
