It’s impossible to balance line-to-line voltages perfectly in three-phase circuits, so they typically differ by a few volts or more. However, if voltage unbalance exceeds 1%, it can markedly decrease ...

This application note presents the vector control of a 3-phase AC induction motor using the Z8FMC16100 microcontrollers. This document also briefly describes the series of Z8FMC16100 flash ...

The topic of motors and motor control techniques is wide and varied. Part one of this two-part article will cover the principles of alternating-current (AC) motor operation and control. Part two will ...

TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation ("Toshiba") today announced the launch of “TB67B000AHG,” a new three-phase brushless motor driver for home appliances such as ...

In the original version of this article, the second figure contained an error. The image has been updated. It’s important for engineers to have a good, working ...

KAWASAKI, Japan--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation ("Toshiba") has today started to provide engineering samples of a gate driver [1] IC, "TB9084FTG,” for three-phase ...

The PS211 Size-11 stepper motor achieves a nanospeed rate compliant to 2-Phase Nano Stepper Technology. The PS211 Series reaches up to 200,000 steps/rev at a fine-pitch resolution angle of 0.0018 in.

Early incarnations of the electric motor first appeared in the 1740s through the work of Scottish Benedictine monk and scientist, Andrew Gordon. Other scientists such as Michael Faraday and Joseph ...

While software and other advanced technologies often capture the automation technology spotlight, the fact remains that not much happens in the manufacturing or processing industries without motors.
