Precisely tracking speed, acceleration, and position of a motor's rotor is an essential requirement for many motor control applications found in everyday equipment such as fax machines, elevators, and ...

Absolute Accuracy The difference between the actual position and the reported position through one rotation (like INL) Position control applications depend on absolute accuracy Differential Accuracy ...

DC Motor with Quadrature Encoder Speed & Position Measurement (Arduino + L298N) This Arduino project controls a DC motor using an L298N motor driver while reading position, speed, and angle from a ...

Why are there so many different angle encoders on the market? Why do they use different scanning and measuring methods? And which one should a designer choose? To answer those questions, engineers at ...

Alignment of optical encoder commutation signals to a Brushless DC (BLDC) motor could be thought of as being comparable to timing the distributor on a car engine. The distributor tells the spark plugs ...

We always think it is interesting that a regular DC motor and a generator are about the same thing. Sure, each is optimized for its purpose, but inefficiencies aside, you can use electricity to rotate ...
