When most engineers hear the term motor they most-naturally think of rotating arrangements such as brushed DC, brushless DC, stepper, or variable-frequency prime movers. But a motor doesn’t have to be ...

To run a stepper motor smoothly, it's necessary to apply linear acceleration. However, conventional algorithms to generate linear acceleration require complicated mathematics, which makes it difficult ...

This file type includes high-resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. Parker’s Electric Thrust Tubular (ETT) Series is a tubular style linear motor made up of two main components: the ...

Isolating problems in the control circuitIn Part 1 of this two-part series, we presented a 3-phase, 480VAC motor circuit with its associated controls (Figure). We stepped through a logical, systematic ...

Called MAX40056 it is intended to reduce vibration in motor drives. The claim is that it can reject PWM slew rates of >500V/µs and settles within 500ns to provide a 0.3% accurate (of full-scale) ...
