The MLX81100 controls, diagnoses and protects a reversible DC motor application using only simple power NMOSFETs. It integrates all standard automotive protections to plug it directly on to the 12V ...

En route to getting the off-the-peg DC-51 motor speed controller to better suit my small milling machine, I had a go at working out what the circuit is. Approx circuit of DC-51 motor speed controller ...

A more standard motor driver, the L298HN is being used for the purpose of controlling one 12V DC motor with the aid of a PIC microcontroller. In order to drive the motor fast, slow, forward, 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 ...

Running a brushed motor in muddy or dusty environments takes a toll on controllers, with both heavy back EMF and high stall currents. This explains one of the challenge in Europe’s Hacky Racer series, ...
