DC motors are the workhorses of modern electromechanical systems, found in applications ranging from tiny vibrating motors in smartphones to massive industrial machinery driving assembly lines.

The Modulino Hub, Extender, and Motors boards simplify I2C expansion, long-cable communication, and protected motor control for modular embedded projects. How the Modulino Hub isolates duplicate I2C ...

Back in the 80s, buying a home computer could easily mean an inflation-adjusted cost of thousands of dollars (or your equivalent currency unit of choice), and all for an 8-bit machine that might not ...

Automobile lovers have been steeped in the language of the internal-combustion engine for so long that the inexorable switch to electrification requires a tune-up of our knowledge base. Many of us are ...

The design of different three-phase brushless DC motors and how they generate torque. How magnetics, construction, and other factors impact torque, speed, and smoothness in BLDC motors. General ...

We now know where race cars will zoom through downtown D.C. and along the National Mall this summer. The Freedom 250 Grand Prix will send cars speeding at 190 mph through D.C. on Aug. 23 as part of ...

The smart home space has always had a problem, and that problem has a name: fragmentation. Your Philips Hue bulbs want to talk to your Google Home, your Apple HomeKit wants to command your smart ...

UK-based Yasa has revealed a potentially game-changing in-wheel electric motor. Based on its record-breaking tiny axial flux motor, the new drive unit prototype can provide over 1,000 hp per wheel.

[Thinking Techie] takes us back to basics in a recent video explaining how magnets, coils, brushed DC motors, and brushless DC motors work. If this is on your “to learn” list, or you just want a ...

DC motors are motion components that take electrical power in the form of direct current (or some manipulated form of direct current) and convert it into mechanical rotation. The motors do this ...
