This fall, the SMMA Motor & Motion College will offer three motor control courses. Topics to be covered include the Basics of Brushless DC Motors, Basic Motor Theory, Operation and Application, and ...

Here are some answers to frequently asked questions about motor control. Motors provide the driving power in almost every stage of the manufacturing and production process. With this much productive ...

To better understand the origins of noise, we need to think about how the rotation movement takes place. When a stepper motor performs a step, it does not stop immediately but continues to move ...

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 ...

The DC motor is widely used in the field of servo automation and robotics. The operating principle of an electric motor is based on the interaction of two magnetic fields that attract and repel each ...

As previously mentioned, the feedback sensors include position sensors to track the rotor’s location, current sensors to measure the motor phase currents, voltage sensors to monitor the DC bus voltage ...

The topic of motors and motor control techniques is wide and varied. Part one of this two-part article will cover the principles of alternating-current (AC) motor operation and control. Part two will ...
