Two reference design kits demonstrate variable-speed ac induction motor control and stepper motor control using the low-cost Luminary Micro ARM Cortex-M3 LM3S818- or LM3S617-based MCUs. The RDK-ACIM ...

Stepper motors are now being used more frequently in industrial environments. Increased performance and reduced size make them increasingly attractive, and their application is no longer limited to ...

Proper evaluation of torque margins across the full motion profile prevents stalling and ensures consistent performance under varying load and speed conditions. Mechanical resonance can cause ...

Bipolar stepper motors provide precise position control while operating in an open loop. Industrial automation applications—such as robots and processing and packaging machinery—and consumer ...
