In this post we learn how to make a simple electric wheelchair using a standard BLDC motor driver circuit, and a couple of high power BLDC motors. Introduction The introduction of electric wheelchair was like a boon to our many differently-abled friends who now find it much easier to move and travel around, effortlessly, with … Read moreElectric Wheelchair using BLDC Motor
In this post we discuss a high current sensorless BLDC motor controller circuit which does not depend on hall effect sensors for initiating the operations rather utilizes the back EMF from the motor for the sequential input Overview For proper commutation most 3-phase BLDC driver circuits rely either on a sensor based feedback or from … Read moreHigh Current Sensorless BLDC Motor Controller using Back EMF
In this post we are going to construct a wireless servo motor circuit which can control 6 servo motors wirelessly on 2.4 GHz communication link. Introduction The project is divided into two parts: a transmitter with 6 potentiometers and a receiver circuit with 6 servo motors. The remote has 6 potentiometers to control 6 individual … Read moreWireless Servo Motor Control Using 2.4 GHz communication link
Within the next few years we may find all conventional capacitor-start type of ceiling fans getting replaced with BLDC ceiling fan circuits, since the concept allows the operation to be extremely efficient and save power by more than 50%. Replacing Capacitor Start Fan with BLDC Fan Just as the traditional incandescent lamps today are … Read moreBLDC Ceiling Fan Circuit for Power Saving
