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 ...

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, ...

A high-current quad SPST analog switch can be configured as a full-bridge amplifier capable of driving low-power dc motors. By adding a sense resistor, an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), and a ...

The tips and tricks when testing motor-driver ICs on the lab bench can help engineers reduce time spent on evaluating and prototyping motor systems. The first installment of this two-part article ...
