Brushless DC (BLDC) motors are standard fare in low-precision, speedy RC applications. The control schemes needed to run them slowly or precisely go deep into motor theory and might put these motors ...

For decades, the majority of motor control applications have relied upon universal, brushed DC, and stepper motors given their low cost and simplicity of implementation. Continued innovation and ...

This file type includes high-resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. Millions of small electrical devices with built-in motor-driven mechanisms, used daily around the world, rely on ...

SoC platforms can help engineers simplify the design of brushless dc motor applications. By Dr Georges Tchouangue and Wolf Jetschin. Demand for brushless dc (BLDC) motors is growing as designers look ...

Sponsored by Texas Instruments: ICs used in smart gate-drive technology eliminate multiple external components and help mitigate problems such as shoot-through and dV/dt turn-on that causes MOSFET ...

The new motor driver supports both sensor-based and sensorless control while aiding configuration with programmable flash.

We think of motors typically as pretty dumb devices. Depending on the kind, you send them some current or some pulses, and they turn. No problem. Even an RC servo, which has some smarts on board, ...
