In this article I will try to explain how scalar control algorithm is implemented for controlling induction motor speed with relatively straightforward calculations, and yet achieve a reasonably good linearly variable speed control of the motor. Reports from many top market analysis reveal that induction motors are the most popular when it comes to handling […]

Solid State Contactor Circuit for Motor Pumps
In this article I have explained how to design and build a solid state contactor circuit using triacs for operating heavy duty loads like submersible borewell pump motors with high reliability, and without any concerns about wear and tear issue or long term degradation issues of the contactor unit. What is a Contactor A contactor […]
L298N DC Motor Driver Module Explained
In this post I have explained about L298N dual H-bridge DC motor driver module which can be used to drive brushed DC motors and stepper motors with microcontrollers and ICs. Overview Modular circuit boards are best time savior for electronics designers which also reduce the prototyping errors. This is mostly preferred by programmers who write […]
How to Control Servo Motor Using Joystick
In this post I have explained how to control servo motors using a joystick and Arduino. We will see overview about joystick, its pins, its construction and working. We will be extracting useful data from the joy stick which will be base for controlling the servo motors. Introduction The motto of this article is not […]
Stepper Motor Driver Circuit using IC 555
In this project we are going learn how to make a simple unipolar stepper motor driver circuit using 555 timer IC. Apart from 555 timer we also need IC CD 4017 which is a decade counter IC. By Ankit Negi Any unipolar motor can be connected to this circuit for performing specific task, though you […]
Electric Wheelchair using BLDC Motor
In this post I have explained how to make a simple electric wheelchair circuit using a standard BLDC motor driver circuit, and a couple of high power BLDC motors. Introduction The introduction of electric wheelchair was like a boon to our many differently-abled friends who now find it much easier to move and travel around, […]
