Using pulse outputs from a PLC is a cost-effective way to get simple motion. Most, if not all, PLC manufacturers provide a way to control servos and steppers using a pulse train signal. So when a ...

This website has a series of tutorials on control systems. They are designed to help you learn how to use Matlab for the analysis and design of automatic control systems. They cover the basics of ...

As previously mentioned, the feedback sensors include position sensors to track the rotor’s location, current sensors to measure the motor phase currents, voltage sensors to monitor the DC bus voltage ...

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 ...

After only a few years of being completely immersed in the culture of motor drivers, it is very easy for me to take for granted the fact that most people are not familiar with electromechanical ...

As electrification reshapes the transportation industry, the use of smaller, denser, and more efficient electronic and electrical (E/E) assemblies is intensifying the need to manage heat stemming from ...
