In addition to industrial applications of variable-speed motor drives, the home appliance market is another major area where three-phase pulse width modulated (PWM) motor control drives are finding ...

Variable speed motor controllers regulate the speed and/or torque of asynchronous motors. Depending on the application, there are controllers from a few hundred Watts up to several hundred Kilowatts.

Developed by Farnell element14, the S12ZVML-MINIBRD variable speed motor control kit is based on the Freescale S12 MagniV. It includes both the hardware and software needed to get a variable speed ...

The topic of motors and motor control techniques is wide and varied. Part one of this two-part article will cover the principles of alternating-current (AC) motor operation and control. Part two will ...

IR-SA Integrated Technologies, a collaboration between International Rectifier (IR) and Sanyo Semiconductor, will design, develop, and market variable-speed motor-drive power modules. These products ...

Speed, torque, and horsepower are three inter-related parameters in motor control. The speed of a motor, measured in revolutions per minute (rpm), defines a motor's ability to spin at a rate per unit ...

CHICAGO, USA: As part of its growing development kit offering, Newark element14 has partnered with Freescale to launch the MagniV S12ZVML-MINIBRD variable speed motor control development kit. The ...

Upgrades that included a constant-torque flux-vector variable-speed motor let a pre-1912 vintage stamping press handle modern production duties. The rebuilt press was refurbished with new ac-drive ...
