: Using a resistor for current sensing is very simple—as long as real-world issues and trade-offs are understood and resolved.

LEDs save energy, but efficient electric motors can save much more. Now a new generation of GaN transistors promises new power-supply breakthroughs to

Choosing the type of control to use for various motor applications is a strategic choice that should be made before selecting a specific vendor or mod

For motors found in modern robots, electronic-component vendors now offer comprehensive motor control reference designs including motors, MOSFETs and drivers, processors, algorithms, and even...

Classic Robots perform specific, well-defined tasks like assembly-line work, surgical assistance, warehouse delivery/retrieval, and even dangerous tasks such as clearing mines. Today's robots can...

The brushless DC motor offers high performance, reliability, controllability, and precision, and has taken over many of the applications of the brushed DC motors and even many AC motors.

The stepper motor is both a creation and an enabler of the modern era of electronic products. As a technology creation, it required the development of small, powerful permanent magnets for the...

Encoder andamp; resolvers are required for motor control whether the end system is an automobile, a satellite or factory floor machinery, the position feedback sensor is an intrinsic element in...

Motor control requires more than just the obvious MOSFETs that switch power to these motors, and the processors that execute the embedded motor control algorithms and energize/de-energize the MOSFETs.

These two power-control switches can be used for the application; each brings tradeoffs to the design based on basic performance specifications, maximum ratings, thermal issues, and cost.

This white paper explores an advanced motor drive or inverter application to illustrate how silicon convergence affects real-time design.
