I am going begin a microcontroller based smart toy car project. The project will be in many parts, but the first part is the motor driver. A vast range of motor driver chips and modules are used by ...

In this DIY project, we’ll build a super-compact H-bridge motor driver that mounts directly onto the N20 motor itself. No ...

Recently, I found an interesting fan motor module in a web shop and grabbed a couple of them for nothing. At the heart of the module is an eight-pin L9110 DC motor control chip from ASIC (www.asic.net ...

In addition, an integrated current reduction function increases performance and reduces energy consumption. With the current reduction function comes integrated sensorless, load-dependent current ...

We’ve seen plenty of motor projects, but [Jeremy]’s DIY Tubular Linear Motor is a really neat variety of stepper motor in a format we certainly don’t see every day. It started as a design experiment ...

Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation (“Toshiba”) has started to ship engineering samples of “TB9M030FG,” the latest addition to its “SmartMCD™” [1] series of motor control devices. The new ...

TRINAMIC’s new IC, the TMC2660, supports motor drive currents up to 4 A while integrating both a pre-driver for real-time calculation of motor coil current values, and power MOSFETS for amplification ...

STMicroelectronics is upping its game in power electronics with a family of motor drivers that can control the brushed DC and stepper motors at the heart of high-end industrial and consumer ...

A modified feedback system for the EcoLine achieves 70 micrometer repeatability while preserving the original coils and power electronics, enabling 45% cost savings. Double-length 500 mm modules ...

When you think about highly-precise actuators, stepper motors probably aren’t the first device that comes to mind. However, as [Diffraction Limited]’s sub-micron capable micro-manipulator shows, they ...
