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 ...

As a result, remote control technologies are being widely adopted across various sectors. Among the many components used in ...

The Raspberry Pi in general (and the Zero W model in particular) are wonderful pieces of hardware, but they’re not entirely plug-and-play when it comes to embedded applications. The user is on the ...

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 ...

Different types of motors need different types of drivers. Requirements for a variety of applications. Selecting the right motor driver is crucial to achieving the required functionality and ...

TRINAMIC Motion Control's new TMC2660 stepper motor driver IC supports motor drive currents up to 4A. The new IC integrates both a pre-driver for real-time calculation of motor coil current values, ...

The X20SM1436-1 module from B&R can be used to operate stepper motors with operating voltages of 18-60 VDC at rated currents up to 2.5 A. In addition, an integrated current reduction function ...

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 ...

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 ...
