Stepper Motors are DC brushless motors which can rotate from 00Ā to 3600Ā in steps. Stepper motor uses electronic signals to rotate the motor in steps and each signal rotates the shaft in fixed increment (one step). The rotation angel is controlled by applying certain sequence of signals. Unlike Servo Motor, stepper motors can be driven by […]

Pulse Width ModulationĀ (PWM) is a powerful technique where width of the pulse is changed by keeping the frequency constant. The technique is used in many control systems today. The application of PWM is not limited and it is used in wide range of applications such as motor speed control, measurement, power control and communication etc.

DC motors are the most widely used motors. These motors can be found almost everywhere from small projects to advanced robotics. We previously interfaced DC Motor with many other microcontrollers likeĀ Arduino,Ā Raspberry piĀ and used it in manyĀ robotic projects. Today we learn toĀ control DC motor with AVR Microcontroller Atmega16. But before going ahead letās know more about

One way to extend the functionality of the micro:bit is to use a board calledĀ moto:bitĀ by SparkFun Electronics (approximately $15-20). It looks complicated and has many features, but it isnāt hard to run servo motors from it. Moto:bit allows you to run more powerful motors than the tiny micro-motor that you can run from the micro:bit

WarningThe Rancilio Silvia machine runs on high voltage. Any modification to it might be fatal to you or your machine, you act at your own risk and responsible for your modification. Any modification to the machine might void the manufacturer warranty. Make sure to disconnect the machine from the power line before working on it.

So I have yet again over-engineered a task, this time, a freeze-dried coffee dispenser. Why you ask, well the obvious first, itās super fun and second, itās the best way to learn new skills. Iām a real noob when it comes to the inner workings of microcontrollers but I really want to know how I

This Instructable will show you how to use a WaveShare motor/servo board with a micro:bit to power multiple servo motors. This board will make it possible to run more powerful servo motors than the micro servo motor that you can run directly from the micro:bit. Technical information for the WaveShare board is here: https://www.waveshare.com/wiki/Motor_Driver_for_mi… There is

This DC Motor Multiplexer allows you to control up to four DC motors in forward and reverse using one MOSFET and only 5 digital pins. For this intractable you will require: – DC motors (I used salvaged DC fans)– MOSFET (I used a 110v 30amp make sure it is rated for more than your combined

This simple DC motor controller allows for one direction motor control and has been built entirely of reclaimed electrical parts. Using MOSFET’s for motor control instead of control chips, allows for an external power supply and electric isolation of the motor and control board. Which allows for the use of higher voltage and amperage motors

Having already experimented with creating a robot using a cheap motor driver board, I decided to look at the one provided by Kitronik, I liked the look of it as it came with easy to use screw terminals to attach wires and had 4 inputs by default. The nicest thing is that if you get
