San Diego, Calif.—ROHM Electronics has introduced an H-bridge driver IC line, offering designers a simple upgrade path to pulse-width modulation (PWM) speed control using either analog or digital ...

However, not all innovations are equal and nor do they follow a constant upward trend. Instead, their evolution takes the form of an S-shaped curve that reflects their typical lifecycle from early ...

The 555 timer IC is a handful of active components all baked into one beautifully useful 8 pin package. Originally designed for timing purposes, they became ubiquitous parts that can achieve almost ...

The MSK4200 is a 75 V, 5 A, MOSFET H-bridge PWM motor driver/amplifier designed for DC brushed motor control or Class D switchmode amplifier. All of the drive/control circuitry for the lowside and ...

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 ...

Motor speed controllers are electronic devices that control motor speed. They take a signal for the needed speed and drive a motor to that speed. There are a variety of motor speed controllers ...

For example, consider the United States, where the incoming line frequency is usually 60 Hz at 120 V. If an engineer has an AC motor with two poles (a pole pair motor), then the motor's synchronous ...
