Hi, I'm Bill. I'm a software developer with a passion for making and electronics. I do a lot of things and here is where I document my learning in order to be able to inspire other people to make ...

DRV8825 is a library for DRV8825 stepper motor driver. The DRV8825 stepper motor library controls a stepper motor with a direction signal and a step pulse. The library has a default pulse length of 2 ...

The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) defines a servo device as “an adjustable-speed AC power drive system that includes an AC motor integrated by feedback, a converter, and control, ...

Rotary encoders are electromechanical transducers that convert angular displacement into corresponding electrical signals interpretable by digital systems. This article specifically focuses on panel ...

As the saying goes, nothing can be said to be certain, except death, taxes, and the never-ending inventiveness of clock hacks. No matter how tried and proven a concept is, someone will always find a ...

This paper describes the development and implementation of a control system for a direct current (DC) motor using the Arduino Uno microcontroller, based on the speed and direction control of the motor ...

The company has upgraded its online selection tool for stepper motor linear actuators (SMLAs) with a new feature that allows users to include encoders in their design process. This enhancement aims to ...

Van Nuys, CA – The new YPR-45-45-100 Series of Pitch, Roll, and Yaw Three-axis Stages are the integration of two +/- 45 degrees Goniometers for lower (pitch) and middle (roll) axes, and a large upper, ...

Abstract: We present a three-phase electrostatic rotary stepper micromotor for skew angle compensation of read/write heads in hard disk drives. The motor utilizes the electrical energy stored in the ...

Thomson Industries, Inc. has announced a significant upgrade to its stepper motor linear actuator (SMLA) online selector tool, adding the ability to include encoders in the design process. DOWNERS ...
