This Arduino library can control Dynamixel XL-320 servos using a Half-Duplex SoftwareSerial interface. No other hardware or circuitry is needed besides an Arduino board and one or more XL-320 servos.

Permanent magnet dc motors need a chunky inductor in series with them if they are fed from an SCR (thyristor) based mains power controller. It is (probably!) possible to safely interface an Arduino to ...

For motor applications, engineers have several options at their disposal. Typically, engineers can choose between direct-current (DC) or alternating-current (AC) motors. Machine Design has covered the ...

The big picture: Infineon has developed the world's thinnest silicon power wafers, measuring just 20 micrometers in thickness – about the same as a human hair. These wafers promise significant ...

The concept of using open-source software has become increasingly commonplace in industry, with many large software vendors incorporating use of open-source technologies as part of their software ...

If you are interested in building robots, then it is certain that you need to learn how to control the speed and direction of a DC motor, and in one of our previous tutorials, we did just that using ...

Brush dc motors are inexpensive and easy to operate, providing a good balance of performance and price. As a result, billions are manufactured annually worldwide and used in such industries as ...

This article is for those who are interested in learning about the fundamentals of DC motor control in electronic systems. The most prevalent form of the motor is a direct current (DC). There is ...

Starting on Monday, September 19, and running through September 23, Design News will present the free course, DC Motor Controls with the RP2040 Pico. Each class runs an hour, beginning at 2:00 Eastern ...
