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 ...

In order to drive motors at high efficiency, it is necessary to consider a variety of factors, including construction of the motor, components, and drive method. This series will introduce some basic ...

DC Motors were king in industry up until the late 1980s; These motors were popular because they were able to run to a variable speed setpoint, and they could run at full torque from stall to base ...

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 ...

The GSD1 series drives are pulse-width-modulated (PWM) controllers for 12-36 V battery/solar-powered equipment and feature adjustable maximum/minimum speed, current limit, IR compensation and ...

Brushless dc (BLDC) motors offer multiple benefits over other types of dc motors. They’re efficient, reliable, run at high speeds, are compact for their power level, and produce little or no EMI.

Sizing a DC motor to accurately meet a set of requirements can be a thankless task. Having to choose between brush-type or brushless motors can complicate the selection. Even experienced designers may ...
