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 ...

With the appropriate driver IC and microcontroller, designers can exploit the brushless motor's declining price, smaller size, lighter weight, and minimal maintenance. As recently as two years ago, ...

Brushless motor controller regulates velocity and torque via potentiometers or a ±10-V signal Designed for controlling brushless motors up to 700 W equipped with Hall sensors, the DEC 70/10 ...
