The DC motor portion of the project is based on the Infineon brushed DC motor controller TLE94112EL Arduino Shield. In this installment we will focus on the Arduino sketch software to control all the ...

Later, I helped a friend disassemble a Tesla model, and the mass of circuit boards inside was overwhelming—until I drew 5 diagrams that clarified how the motor controller works. Honestly, even friends ...

The controller in question is a 4QD Porter 10 so an extra component is a DC-to-DC converter to provide a floating ground for the Arduino.

Until end of January 2015, both the RGB Lighting Shield with XMC1202 for Arduino and the DC Motor Control Shield with BTN8982TA for Arduino, are available for purchase from Farnell element14 and ...

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 ...
