This is a simple and very effective project circuit which helps to control the speed of a DC motor using pwm and microcontroller. In many applications, it is important to control the speed of DC motor ...

In this exciting video, we dive into the world of controlling high voltage DC motors and the intricate process of designing a custom circuit for them. Join us as we explore the challenges and ...

When you get the call, “The motor won’t start,” you’d best have a logical and systematic plan in place to approach the problem. “Easter egging” just doesn’t work unless you happen to be very lucky!

A seemingly trivial circuit layout can be problematic because of the higher than usual currents that are common in motor-control circuits. Although the circuits that monitor three legs are slightly ...

Another intriguing issue is whether circuits in the remaining frontal agranular cortex—presumably involved in more ‘cognitive’ aspects of motor control—are organized in the form of primary motor ...

Locomotion is a complex motor act that, to a large degree, is controlled by neuronal circuits in the spinal cord. Using a systems neuroscience approach in several model systems of non-limbed and ...
