Industrial applications comprise a wide variety of tasks, each with its own motor specifications. Selecting the proper motor type and how to control its operation is crucial for maximizing performance ...

Sophisticated motor control is no longer the sole province of custom hardware and proprietary control techniques. Advances in powerful, low-cost digital-signal controllers (DSCs) let designers use ...

A brushless-DC motor is common in ceiling fan and pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) camera designs. But you can’t use the same brushless-DC motor solution for both of these end products. A ceiling fan driver ...

The use of permanent magnet direct current (PMDC) motors has greatly increased over the years as more products are being made portable and free to use away from mains power sockets. Generally speaking ...

The 555 timer IC is a handful of active components all baked into one beautifully useful 8 pin package. Originally designed for timing purposes, they became ubiquitous parts that can achieve almost ...

Graceful Shutdown: Ensuring the motor and controller are shut down safely when the application is stopped. If the application operates on a multicore MCU/DSP/FPGA, an appropriate inter-core ...

Schneider Electric's Altivar Solar ATV320 variable speed drives — available at RS — increase the reliability, sustainability, energy efficiency, and service life of solar-powered pumping applications.

Internal-combustion engines run on the explosive power of burning gasoline; electric motors, by contrast, run on magnetic flux. There are several ways to create and manipulate flux, thereby ...

AC induction motors are widely used in industrial applications due to their reliability and low maintenance needs. Comprised of a stator and rotor, these motors convert electrical energy into ...

Complete, unambiguous, and correct software requirements, including safety or security requirements. Correct and consistent design specifications without extraneous functionality. Compiler-produced ...
