This is the first part exploring the motor control shield that I designed for the project where I was doing 3D Printer Filament Measuring with Arduino. The DC motor portion of the project is based on ...

The Arduino Opta micro programmable logic controller (PLC) provides a unique entry point into the automation field. Automation fields like smart homes, process controls, and robotics are project areas ...

The importance of motor trajectory profiles and how they’re used in brushless DC (BLDC) motor control to minimize vibration and smooth out other performance issues. Why the PID loop is the most widely ...

In some categories of motor drive applications, users have little or no tolerance for unpredictable, uneven, or irregular motor behavior. While this certainly cannot be said of all motor-driven ...

How brushless DC motors use electronic commutation to maximize efficiency and ensure smooth and stable motion. Compare trapezoidal, sinusoidal, and sensorless commutation techniques, including key ...

Intelligent control applications often call for multi-axis solutions to meet demanding performance requirements. Intelligent control applications often call for multi-axis solutions to meet demanding ...

As end users increasingly request intelligent control applications, OEMs are faced with imbuing more multi-axis capabilities into their products. Historically, this ...
