ANN ARBOR -- Current Motor, a Michigan-based early stage company that has developed an electric motorcycle targeted at markets in the Americas, announced a strategic agreement with Dakkota Integrated ...

Motors and their associated equipment must be protected against both overload and overcurrent (short circuit or ground fault). This function is usually split, with ...

Systems that have controlled parameters and closed-loop feedback mechanisms are generally more robust and less susceptible to failure. For example, vehicle engines regularly use temperature sensors ...

To prevent a motor from burning up, you must provide a means of protecting it from overcurrent (overload, short circuit, or ground fault). If you can remember not to confuse motor protection with ...

The goal of an effective motor overload protection scheme is to protect the motor from damage while allowing it to operate normally up to its thermal limit. Ideally such a scheme would be based on a ...

In this article learn about options for measuring current in motor control applications, the strengths and challenges of these options, and how using precision current measurement can optimize the ...

TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation ("Toshiba") has added “TB67S539FTG” to its lineup of stepping motor driver IC series that support constant current control, for ...

DC motors come in many forms, but they all have the same job: turning electrical energy (DC) into mechanical energy. Although DC motors have a common operating principle, many applications—including ...

Brushless dc (BLDC) motors are widely used in industrial and home applications, such as in HVAC blowers, because of their efficiency and cost advantage. Furthermore, sensorless control of BLDC motors ...
