The broad world of DC motors is divided into two basic categories: brushed and brushless. The brushed motor has been around “forever” and while billions of such motors in use prove it can work well, ...

Systems that have controlled parameters and closed-loop feedback mechanisms are generally more robust and less susceptible to failure. For example, vehicle engines regularly use temperature sensors ...

Permanent magnet direct current (dc) motors convert electrical energy into mechanical energy through the interaction of two magnetic fields. One field is produced by a permanent magnet assembly; the ...

There are several reasons to consider using brushed DC motors as generators in particular applications, notes Sunil Kedia of Portescap in a new Machine Design article. “Brushed DC motors are less ...

In the world of motion technology, few components have proven as enduring and versatile as the brushed DC motor. Known for its simplicity, reliability, and cost-effectiveness, this classic motor ...

Brushless DC motors, and their associated drive electronics, tend to be expensive and complicated. [Ottoragam] was looking for a cheaper alternative and built this Brushed DC motor servo controller ...

Why there’s a continuing role for brushed DC motors. The multitude of small-motor applications for autos. How motor drivers can enhance performance and connectivity. It’s easy to assume that brushed ...

Yesterday Toshiba started volume production of DC brushed motor driver ICs with a single-channel H-bridge driver offering a maximum rating of 50V/3.5A and what is claimed to be the industry’s lowest ...
