Hope this article has helped you to better understand how to incorporate DC motors into your electronics projects! Leave a comment below if you have any questions.

Fine tune the motors speed. Now that the motor runs, achieving the desired speed is a matter of adding or changing the resistors. To decrease the speed, detach one end of the connected resistor and connect another resistor to that end of the resistor and reattach the disconnected side to the unconnected end of the new resistor.

So in this article, we will cover the basic concept of controlling the speed of a DC motor with a potentiometer, using Arduino’s PWM signal with the help of a MOSFET Transistor. Below, you can see a working setup of our project, which we will be building in this article.

In the circuit diagram, slider of the potentiometer is connected to analog input pin A0 of arduino. Resistor R1 limits the base current of the transistor Q1.

If this causes many problems, a switch may be installed between these components to shut off the circuit when needed. Once both ends of the wire are connected, the circuit will be ready.

The code should be easily ported to any other STM32 microcontroller or reconfigured to use any Timer and PWM Channel that you want just as we’ll see in this section. And here is a link for the course’s repo, and you’ll find the DC_MOTOR driver in the ECUAL directory as usual.

But BLDC motors are more difficult to drive than brushed motors. With a brushed motor, all you need to do is to connect the power source to the positive and negative leads from the motor.

As soon as the opposite poles meet, the commutator switches the current supplied to the armature. This creates the reverse polarity of the magnetic field, and the armature keeps rotating.

A DC motor has some significant advantages, and one of them is the simplicity of its control system. Here, we’ll tell you how a DC motor controller works and how you can use it.

Three wires are needed. Insulated wires work best as they prevent wires from crossing and the battery from short circuiting.

is the time for which the square wave is low.When duty cycle is increased the power dropped across the load increases and when duty cycle is reduced, power across the load decreases. The block diagram of a typical PWM power controller scheme is shown below.

The pins EnA and EnB of the motor controller L298 are used as the PWM pins. We can rotate the DC motor at different speed providing different high and low voltage levels to these pins of the motor control driver.

For instance, a DC motor controller for an industrial brushed motor uses different working principles and has a different design compared to a controller for DC motors in electric vehicles.
