Radio Control (RC) Servo Motor with PWM – Video Tutorial

This video tutorial  is about servo motor that controlled by PWM signal.  There should be two electrical input, one for the power and  another for the control signal (to command a position). This servo motor is very common that can be found in the radio control cars and airplanes. The position of  the servo motor [...]

PWM Motor Control Circuit

circuit schematic

Speed control for dc motor (electric motor) can be implemented using open loop or closed loop. Closed loop controller, also known as servo controller,  or a feedback control, gives the best performance since the loop will maintain the actual speed to follow the reference. In simple application, an open loop controller can be enough if [...]

Dimmer Circuit

circuit schematic

Light dimmer circuit is used to control the lamp for arbitrary brightness. This dimmer circuit work for incandescent lamp, not a fluorescent one.  The dimmer circuit here work for both 110V and 220V AC.  Here is the schematic diagram of the circuit: /caption] Dimmer Wiring Diagram The dimmer circuit is [...]

Autoranging Circuit

circuit schematic

Autoranging is useful to extend the measurement range of an available ADC (analog-to-digital converter).  Autoranging will best implemented for multiplexed input.  LTC1257 is appropriate for system autoranging, adjusting an ADC’s full-scale range. During the conversion process, U2 and U3 receive the full and zero scale codes, respectively, that correspond to a [...]

Phase Control Circuit

circuit schematic

A phase control circuit can be used to control the power delivered to an AC load. The phase control circuit control the AC waveform, cutting the cycle to give full cycle, half cycle, zero cycle, or somewhere in between. You can say this circuit is similar to a dimmer circuit, but the switching is synchronized [...]

Integrator Circuit With Reset

circuit schematic

Integration is one of basic signal processing that can be done in analog domain. Using operational amplifier (op-amp), integration operation can be done with very simple circuit with very high accuracy. Here is the schematic diagram of an integrator circuit: The resistor R2 should have the same value with R1 since R2 [...]
