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 ...

Later, I helped a friend disassemble a Tesla model, and the mass of circuit boards inside was overwhelming—until I drew 5 ...

Toshiba has got together with development board maker Mikroe to create a platform for its TB9M003FG automotive three-phase motor control and driver IC. Toshiba has got together with development board ...

[kodera2t] discovered the VL53L0X Time of Flight sensor and thought it would make a great way to control the operation of a model train without touching it. He explains it in his own words in the demo ...

Seeing this Toshiba motor drive, my first thought was ‘what a neat chip for pairing with an Arduino’ as it combines operation across 1.8 to 7V with up to 4A drive – so that is Li-ion batteries, 5V USB ...

We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. There's a certain charm in seeing simple electronic systems at work. Don't you just get excited as you watch a mobile robot solve a maze or ...

[Photo: Xoscillo] An oscilloscope is an instrument used by scientists and engineers to observe constantly varying electrical signal voltages. Oscilloscopes can be useful tools, but they can be ...

Looking for a simple circuit to control the light intensity of Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) or similar lighting sources? Here is an Arduino based circuit with three independent pulse width modulated ...

If you’ve been hanging out here at Hackaday for awhile, you’ve certainly seen projects that were based around the concept of putting a miniature computer inside the carcass of some other piece of ...
