This article will help you build a simple Arduino-based DCC system. Growing up in the 1980s I was living the dream. I had an ...

ClearCore CLCR-4-13 is an industrial IO and motion controller that can be programmed using the Arduino IDE. It handles up to four axes of step-and-direction motion control (500kHz max step rate), and ...

Permanent magnet dc motors need a chunky inductor in series with them if they are fed from an SCR (thyristor) based mains power controller. It is (probably!) possible to safely interface an Arduino to ...

So your electronic hobby skills are coming along quite nicely but you’re not very comfortable doing more than blinking a few LEDs. Now’s a good time to try something new by driving a couple of DC ...

Running a brushed motor in muddy or dusty environments takes a toll on controllers, with both heavy back EMF and high stall currents. This explains one of the challenge in Europe’s Hacky Racer series, ...
