KAWASAKI, Japan--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation ("Toshiba") has launched “TB9083FTG,” a gate-driver IC [1] for automotive brushless DC motors used in applications ...

A brushless DC (BLDC) electric motor is likened to a motor with brushes, but turned “inside-out.” A BLDC motor has a rotor with permanent magnets and the stator contains the windings. Older motors ...

With no need for compressed air, early electric actuators could operate with less sound and less maintenance than the predominant pneumatic actuator. Of course, the standard pneumatic option offered ...

TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Renesas Electronics Corporation (TSE:6723), a premier supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, today introduced a family of motor driver ICs for brushless DC (BLDC) motor ...

Programmable controller is capable of directly driving a hall-sensor equipped brushless dc motor up to 30 A at up to 60 V. April 4, 2013 The SBL1360 from Roboteq is a programmable controller capable ...

Brushless-dc motors are taking center stage in medical-equipment design because they last twice as long a competing technologies. • Sensorless brushless-dc-drives have evolved to a point where they ...

Sizing a DC motor to accurately meet a set of requirements can be a thankless task. Having to choose between brush-type or brushless motors can complicate the selection. Even experienced designers may ...

1. Field-oriented control (FOC), also known as vector control, maintains a constant stator field in quadrature with the rotor field irrespective of any bandwidth limitations presented by the PI ...

In this article, I’ll dig into a couple of things you need to know when it comes to using salvaged hard disc drive spindle motors. Most electronics hobbyists think that such hard disc drive spindle ...

Maxon introduces HEJ 70-48-50 drive, designed for autonomous mobile robots in unstructured environments. With peak torque of 50 Nm and speeds up to 28 rad/s, it maintains a mass... Maxon's new IDX ...
