Next is the H-bridge, which resembles an H (Figure 2), which is used typically with a brushed DC motor. In addition to run, coast, and break operating modes, it can also reverse a motor. Simplified ...

Trinamic Motion Control's TMCM-0013-xA current-sense boards are lab tools designed to simplify the measurement and visualization of two-phase motor currents. The boards are well-suited for tuning a ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. Bob Zollo, Product Planner, Power and Energy Division, Keysight Technologies Electric motors are prevalent in our ...

Bipolar stepper motors are used in many applications, from driving paper through a printer to moving an XY stage in industrial equipment. Typically, the motors are driven and controlled by inexpensive ...

Sophisticated motor control is no longer the sole province of custom hardware and proprietary control techniques. Advances in powerful, low-cost digital-signal controllers (DSCs) let designers use ...

The goal of an effective motor overload protection scheme is to protect the motor from damage while allowing it to operate normally up to its thermal limit. Ideally such a scheme would be based on a ...
