Whether you're a motor designer/builder or buyer/user, understanding how the efficiency of brushless DC motors is improved with the use of Hall-effect sensors is important to your building and/or ...

Brushless dc (BLDC) motors need to operate more efficiently as energy and cost savings becomes a bigger concern. One way to ensure greater efficiency is by selecting the correct bipolar latching ...

Texas Instruments announced the addition of a new family of Hall effect magnetic sensors on its motor solutions and sensing portfolio. The rugged and fully protected DRV5000 sensor products is ...

Developed for space and other harsh environments, a Hall-effect sensor from TT Electronics OPTEK Technology performs stable position sensing over a wide range of temperatures while operating over a ...

Recently, [Solder Hub] put together a brief video that demonstrates the basics of a Hall Effect sensor — in this case, one salvaged from an old CPU fan. Two LEDs, a 100 ohm resistor, and a 3.7 volt ...

The DECS 50/5 speed controller drives brushless DC (BLDC) motors without Hall sensors. Measuring about the size of a business card, the unit accepts an input-voltage range from 10V to 50V and delivers ...

We’re used to thinking of limit switches as a mechanical device that cuts the motor connection before physical damage can occur. [Anthony] decided to try a different route with this project. He built ...
