In Part 1 of this two-part series, we presented a 3-phase, 480VAC motor circuit with its associated controls (Figure). We stepped through a logical, systematic approach to troubleshoot the main power ...

This DC power supply controller is controlled by pulse width modulation PWM, generated by the circuit around timer IC2 7555 according to the formula: Duty cycle = ((R1 + (VR1/2)/(R1+R2+VR1)) x 100% ...

En route to getting the off-the-peg DC-51 motor speed controller to better suit my small milling machine, I had a go at working out what the circuit is. Approx circuit of DC-51 motor speed controller ...

Note: This specialization requires purchase of a hardware kit in order to apply your knowledge and skill with real world tools. The hardware will be used to complete the lab exercises across the four ...

This project circuit helps to detect and control the water level in an overhead tank or container. Here, we use 8051 microcontroller. This is an interesting and very useful project in our real life.

Permanent magnet dc motors need a chunky inductor in series with them if they are fed from an SCR (thyristor) based mains power controller. It is (probably!) possible to safely interface an Arduino to ...

The latest microcontrollers featuring field-oriented control bring higher efficiency to motor-control circuit designs in consumer ...
