Allegro Microsystems, LLC releases a new high current integrated DC motor drive IC, the A5950. Allegro’s A5950 is designed for PWM control of DC motors and capable of peak output currents up to ±3 A.
How does a dc motor operate, and what's the impact of back EMF? Difference between continuous and stall current. How is current regulation applied in dc motor drivers? Oftentimes, the motor driver and ...
BD67871MWV-Z Three-Phase Brushless DC Motor Gate Driver Optimized for medium voltage systems (12 to 48V) General-Purpose ...
Systems that have controlled parameters and closed-loop feedback mechanisms are generally more robust and less susceptible to failure. For example, vehicle engines regularly use temperature sensors ...
Industrial applications use direct current motors because the speed-torque relationship can be varied to almost any useful form -- for both motor and regeneration applications in either direction of ...
Many applications using miniature brushed DC motors require motors to operate at more than one load point or through specific load cycles. Running a motor at usable load points requires a variable, ...
Brushless dc (BLDC) motors are widely used in industrial and home applications, such as in HVAC blowers, because of their efficiency and cost advantage. Furthermore, sensorless control of BLDC motors ...
Running a brushed motor in muddy or dusty environments takes a toll on controllers, with both heavy back EMF and high stall currents. This explains one of the challenge in Europe’s Hacky Racer series, ...
