A pulse-width modulator (PWM) is a common way of generating analog outputs from a digital component. A PWM replaces a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) that generates analog voltage or current ...

Maxon's NEW ESCON 36/2 DC is a 4-quadrant PWM servo controller for use with DC motors up to 72 W. A very fast digital current controller with an enormous bandwidth for optimal motor current/torque ...

A single-axis linear servo amplifier for sub-nanometer positioning, the LDM3U emerges as the first to offer either analog or digital current control. The rack-mount unit operates with ac servo, ac ...

The recent trend in has been to reduce cost, size and complexity of servo systems while increasing performance. High-end machining has always used the best the industry had to offer, but increasingly ...

Students, hobbyists and electronic enthusiasts looking to control motors, servos, solenoids and more using the BBC micro:bit mini PC might be interested in a new arrival at the Adafruit store which ...

Monitoring takes the form of sensors and intelligent devices connected to a digital processor. These monitored values are used for computing and then controlling some sort of real-world action. Many ...

Recently I came across a simple infographic from Power Jack Motion that did a nice job of visualizing the difference between alternating current (ac) and direct current (dc) motors. This article will ...

While building robotics projects, the importance of controllers and motors cannot be overstated. These components are the heart and soul of any robotic system, providing the necessary control and ...

Connection Diagram: Velocity Limited Torque Mode illustrates the P3 terminals that need to be connected to successfully replicate this example. The bottom line in an automated system is that the ...

Though mostly associated with country music, there's a pretty good chance that you've heard the sweet singing tones of a lap steel guitar in whatever modern genre floats your boat. OK, maybe not ...
