As previously mentioned, the feedback sensors include position sensors to track the rotor’s location, current sensors to measure the motor phase currents, voltage sensors to monitor the DC bus voltage ...

The shift from 12-V supply rails to 48-V power systems is pushing power levels under the hood to new highs. But it opens the ...

High-performance motors need a control mechanism that ensures enhanced smoothness, reliability, and efficiency. One of the most apt examples of such an application is the motor used in ...

Humans have a complex body with more degrees of freedom than needed to perform any particular task. Such redundancy affords flexible and adaptable motor behavior, provided that all degrees of freedom ...

Graceful Shutdown: Ensuring the motor and controller are shut down safely when the application is stopped. If the application operates on a multicore MCU/DSP/FPGA, an appropriate inter-core ...

Vector Control, also known as Field Oriented Control or FOC is an AC motor control scheme that enables fine-grained control over a connected motor, through the precise control of its phases. In a ...

Motor control centers (MCCs) were first introduced in 1937 as a way to conserve wall and/or floor space in industrial facilities. Before 1960, wall-mounted motor starters were used even if only a few ...

Read part 1 of this series on construction and operating principles here. Having understood the construction and basic operating principle of BLDC motor in the first part of this article, it becomes ...

SunFounder Fusion HAT+ for Raspberry Pi 5/4/3B+ and Zero single board computers is a motor control and GPIO expansion board ...

The migrating motor complex (MMC) is a cyclic, recurring motility pattern that occurs in the stomach and small bowel during fasting; it is interrupted by feeding. The MMC is present in the ...
