We often think of the electric light as being the “killer app” for electricity. Sure, the telegraph was also fairly important, but it didn’t enter every home the way the electric light did -- not ...

Among the mechanical components that go into the design of the world’s two million different kinds of medical devices, consider the motor to be an unsung hero. Embedded inside a medical device, the ...

The AH5792 smart motor controller from Diodes Inc. can be used to drive low-power, single-coil, brushless dc (BLDC) fans and motors. This single-chip solution integrates a Hall sensor and amplifier, ...

A pair of development kits, created by Qorvo and CGD, simplifies the development of GaN-based controller/driver systems for BLDC and PMSM motors. Cambridge GaN Devices and Qorvo have partnered to ...

The SC 5004 and SC 5008 brushed or brushless DC motor speed controllers output 4 or 8 A continuous. They operate from 6 to 50 Vdc and are software configurable via a programming adapter. The ...

For IGBTs, the on-state voltage drop is a critical specification to consider. This drop includes both the diode drop across ...

Most known for their versatility, electric motors have revolutionised the way we view the core definition of power, qualifying it as effective energy expenditure concerning work done over time. Among ...
