For example, if the posted speed limit is 55 and a teen keeps putting the pedal to the metal, the pedal will no longer respond. If 55 is the limit, 55 is as fast as the car will go. (Not sure how this ...

The MSK4310 IS A 10 A, 55 V, three phase brushless motor speed controller with an electrically isolated hermetic package. This device delivers an output current of 10 amps and a DC bus voltage of 55 V ...

It’s easy to take feedback devices for granted. However, the impact this seemingly minor component can have on a system’s ...

Matching drive to motor is essential to gain the best combination of torque, speed, and efficiency. Selecting the right drive is essential to getting the best performance and efficiency from an ...

Let us begin this session by revisiting a nostalgic motor control IC—the AN6651—designed for rotating speed control of compact DC motors used in tape recorders, record players, and similar devices.

Faced with ever-increasing cost pressures and demands for improved performance, machine builders are actively seeking new automation solutions with improved cost/performance ratios. In response to ...

With its ever-increasing electronic content, the modern automobile places a premium on energy-efficient design. That’s doubly true for hybrid-electric and full-electric vehicles (HEVs and EVs), in ...

The ABCs of PID control. Considerations for interfacing elements in the electrical circuit to accomplish those parts of the PID function for position control. Firmware code implementation.
