This document written by Steve Bowling, Application Segments Engineer at Microchip Technology, discusses how motor works and describes the AC induction motor, variable-speed ACIM control, and FOC.

DC Motors were king in industry up until the late 1980s; These motors were popular because they were able to run to a variable speed setpoint, and they could run at full torque from stall to base ...

In this intriguing video, we delve into the fascinating world of electric motors by conducting an experiment to compare the ...

In low-cost, high-speed motor applications, especially those inside the home, the universal motor dominates. They are as ubiquitous as the countertop blenders and the power tools they inhabit. But not ...

In the use of intelligent barrier gates in parking lots, the selection of motors is often overlooked, yet it directly determines the gate's traffic efficiency, lifespan, and operational maintenance ...

Abstract: In this paper the MatLab software package is considered from the point of view of a universal environment for modeling DC and AC motor systems. The analysis of methods of mathematical, ...
