Designers of motion control applications are under pressure to optimize performance and efficiency while keeping component count and space to an absolute minimum. The ideal situation is sensorless ...

[Davide Gironi] shows us how to implement a sensorless brushless DC motor controller (sensorless BLDC) using an ATmega8 microcontroller. In order to control a BLDC motor you need to know its ...

Allegro will be showing a 5.5 to 50V field-oriented three-phase brush-less dc motor controller than needs no user code at PCIM. Called AMT49406, and first announced for Electronica, will be the first ...

Zilog's Z16FMC Series of Flash microcontrollers are ideal for 3-phase and single-phase AC induction, permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs), and brushless DC motor control. These motors are ...

Texas Instruments has introduced 70W brushless dc motor drivers with code-free sensor-less ield-oriented or trapezoidal control. In common, the devices include a set of commutation control algorithms ...

Smart MCD: A series of automotive motor control drivers (MCDs) developed by Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation ...

There are a lot of cheap Chinese CNC machines out there with okay mechanics and terrible electronics. The bearings aren’t complete crap, but the spindle of these CNC machines is a standalone PWM ...

Industrial applications use direct current motors because the speed-torque relationship can be varied to almost any useful form -- for both motor and regeneration applications in either direction of ...
