Driving a brushless DC (gimbal) motor can be a pain in the transistors. [Ignas] has written up a nice article not only explaining how to do just this with an Arduino, but also explaining a little ...
[Frank Herrmann] had an interesting idea to turn a geared DC motor into a servo motor assembly, but with a stepper motor-like interface.By stacking some small PCBs behind the motor body, it was ...
“Motor voltage: 24 VDC, 38 VDC (E-type). In my case, I used 12VDC power supply to the motor because this voltage level is compatible with L293D Motor Arduino Shield.
So long as the 0V rail is connected to the Arduino 0V rail, the positive rail can be any dc voltage – more or less that the Arduino, so great for 12V motors. And it is compatible with both 5V and 3V ...
It is a Clarke DCM10, a variant of Sieg’s X1, sometimes knows as a ‘micro mill’. Mine has a ~230V 150W brushed dc motor that needs driving from 240Vac mains power. Almost randomly, I settled on a ...
