I am going begin a microcontroller based smart toy car project. The project will be in many parts, but the first part is the motor driver. A vast range of motor driver chips and modules are used by ...

Recently, I found an interesting fan motor module in a web shop and grabbed a couple of them for nothing. At the heart of the module is an eight-pin L9110 DC motor control chip from ASIC (www.asic.net ...

The Raspberry Pi in general (and the Zero W model in particular) are wonderful pieces of hardware, but they’re not entirely plug-and-play when it comes to embedded applications. The user is on the ...

In addition, an integrated current reduction function increases performance and reduces energy consumption. With the current reduction function comes integrated sensorless, load-dependent current ...

We’ve seen plenty of motor projects, but [Jeremy]’s DIY Tubular Linear Motor is a really neat variety of stepper motor in a format we certainly don’t see every day. It started as a design experiment ...

Stepper motors are now being used more frequently in industrial environments. Increased performance and reduced size make them increasingly attractive, and their application is no longer limited to ...

North Atlantic Industries (NAI) adds new 3-axis motion control module (M*) based on the Magellan MC58000 Series Processor-adding motor control capability to multi-function board platforms. North ...

Texas Instruments (TI) has introduced two new automotive motor drivers that support high-performance powertrain applications. The DRV8305-Q1, a highly integrated three-phase brushless DC gate driver, ...
