Most known for their versatility, electric motors have revolutionised the way we view the core definition of power, qualifying it as effective energy expenditure concerning work done over time. Among ...

In this article, I’ll dig into a couple of things you need to know when it comes to using salvaged hard disc drive spindle motors. Most electronics hobbyists think that such hard disc drive spindle ...

The folks over at the [Barkhausen Institut] are doing research into controlling autonomous fleets of RC cars and had been using off the shelf electronic speed controllers (ESCs) to control the car ...

Toshiba has launched two sine-wave pulse width modulated (PWM) drive controllers for three-phase brushless DC motors ...

Brushless DC (BLDC) motors transform electrical power into mechanical power. However, there’s no such thing as a perfect motor; there are always losses in the transformation. The three main types of ...

Advanced and sophisticated control of all types of motors, and especially brushless DC (BLDC) types, has been receiving lots of attention and support in recent years. This makes sense, as advanced ...

The trend in the automotive industry is to replace mechanically actuated systems with systems based on electric motor technology. The traditional brushed dc motor is not suitable for many of these ...

Toshiba Electronics Europe GmbH has released two sine-wave PWM drive controllers – TC78B043FNG and TC78B043FTG – for three-phase BLDC motors, which can support surface permanent magnet (SPM) and ...
