You can salvage some nice motors out of optical drives but they can be tricky to control. That’s because brushless DC motors require carefully timed signals used in a process called Electronic Speed ...

Electronic speed controller with arduino project illustrate a physical 3-phase motor driver system. It features high current MOSFETS, dual MOSFET drivers, and an arduino nano. A DIY motor driver board ...

Permanent magnet dc motors need a chunky inductor in series with them if they are fed from an SCR (thyristor) based mains power controller. It is (probably!) possible to safely interface an Arduino to ...

I have been trying to fix a little old milling machine I bought (and here), and needed a replacement motor controller. It is a Clarke DCM10, a variant of Sieg’s X1, sometimes knows as a ‘micro mill’.

A brushless-DC motor is common in ceiling fan and pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) camera designs. But you can’t use the same brushless-DC motor solution for both of these end products. A ceiling fan driver ...
