This circuit takes advantage of the voltage drop across bridge rectifier diodes to produce a 5-position variable voltage supply to a DC fan or other small DC motor. It is not as efficient as a ...

To successfully integrate the drive into the system, the controller must provide full functionality for motor control. The more functions the drive itself can implement, the fewer add-ons and ...

The topic of motors and motor control techniques is wide and varied. Part one of this two-part article will cover the principles of alternating-current (AC) motor operation and control. Part two will ...

Targeting small motors found in industrial, home, and office electronics, the MC34929 three-phase brushless dc motor driver integrates over-temperature, under-voltage, and stalled-rotor protection ...

This article explains how to create a brushed DC motor programmable speed regulator that is low-noise, high-performance, and affordable. The regulator is not affected by changes in temperature, ...

At CES, MPS highlighted how its motor-control ICs can enable smarter, more precise control of brushless DC motors that are multiplying across robotics and other industries.
