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 ...

There is a neat PWM motor controller module doing the rounds. Very similar types are available from several manufacturers. It is based on a pair of BTS7960 half-bridges from Infineon, with a cmos ...

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 ...

There seems to be no end in sight for the proliferation of small-to-medium power motor drivers, as the motor applications—especially for brushless-dc (BLDC) types—are being designed into more end ...

Motor controllers in general and especially closed-loop controllers have come a very long way in the past few years. Control flexibility, adaptability, and strategies that were only dreamed of or very ...

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, ...

Very similar types are available from several manufacturers. It is based on a pair of BTS7960 half-bridges from Infineon, with a cmos logic chip included to give them a clean drive from external ...
