Much has been written about the process of selecting motors for applications in motion control. Motor selection can be complicated. The decisions to be made include whether to employ brushless or ...

With the appropriate driver IC and microcontroller, designers can exploit the brushless motor's declining price, smaller size, lighter weight, and minimal maintenance. As recently as two years ago, ...

Brushless motor technology has been around for what seems like forever. Interestingly, the motor technology itself is simpler than the brush type, has David Swanson, Principal Engineer, ...

Engineers have several choices to make when selecting brushless motors for their latest designs. Making the wrong choice can doom the design to mediocrity and failure in the marketplace. So to ensure ...

Brushless motors are ubiquitous in RC applications and robotics, but are usually driven with low-cost motor controllers that have to be controlled with RC-style PWM signals and don’t allow for much ...

San Jose, Calif. — Renesas Technology America, Inc. has introduced the R8C/25-based brushless DC (BLDC) motor control reference platform (MCRP). The platform allows engineers to quickly bring the ...

TIDA-00447 is a 24V, dual Brushless DC (BLDC) motor drive reference design to be used in dishwashers to drive water circulation pump and drain pump. The circulation pump and the drain pump drive ...

TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Renesas Electronics Corporation (TSE:6723), a premier supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, today expanded its motor control solutions portfolio with two ...

For something basic like a brushed DC motor, speed control can be quite simple, and powering up the motor is a simple matter of just applying voltage. Brushless motors are much more demanding in their ...
