There are two separate circuits when it comes to motors and motor control. The main power circuit is what supplies the power ...

A typical low-voltage variable-frequency drive. Industrial facilities commonly use variable-frequency drives (VFDs) to control the speed at which alternating current motors operate. Let’s examine a ...

Advanced and sophisticated control of all types of motors, and especially brushless DC (BLDC) types, has been receiving lots of attention and support in recent years. This makes sense, as advanced ...

The circuit switches the MOSFETs, which in turn send current through the legs of the ac motor. A typical high-speed PWM motor-control system uses fast-switching, high-power bipolar transistors, IGBTs ...

Key opportunities include growth from robotics in manufacturing, automotive electrification, and industrial automation.

Motor control, particularly frequency-controlled drives, is a technology that has advanced quickly in recent years as a result of the widespread use of motors in a variety of applications and the ...

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, ...

Printed circuit board motors replace wire windings with copper traces and report about 7% higher efficiency, helping cut ...

Toshiba offers samples of a compact, SPI‑enabled gate driver that helps enhance safety and reduce wiring for high‑current automotive motor systems.

Faced with ever-increasing cost pressures and demands for improved performance, machine builders are actively seeking new automation solutions with improved cost/performance ratios. In response to ...
