In this post I will show how to construct a wireless DC motor speed control circuit which can be controlled using any IR based remote controller. The proposed project has two main objectives; the first one is 5 step sequential speed control of a 12V DC motor using IC 555 (PWM) and controlling the PWM […]

Electric Wheelchair using BLDC Motor
In this post I have explained how to make a simple electric wheelchair circuit 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, […]
DC Shunt Motor Controller Circuit using Variac
The simple DC shunt motor controller circuit presented in the following article uses a variac. This design facilitates an instant stopping of the motor at any stage with a flick of a switch, along with reversing the motor direction. It also provides speed control for the motor with a high level of accuracy. Overview TRIAC […]
PWM Motor Soft Start Circuit to Prevent High Consumption during Power Switch ON
In this post I have explained an effective PWM motor soft start circuit which can be used for enabling heavy motors with a soft start and thus prevent the equipment from drawing dangerous high currents. Why a Soft Start High wattage motors such pump motors or other forms of heavy industrial motors tend to draw […]
Refrigerator Motor Soft Start Circuit
Refrigerators tend to draw appreciable amounts of current each time their compressor switch ON, and this could happen many times per day. A soft start circuit to the compressor motor could probably tackle this issue and help save electricity. The idea was requested by Mr. Naeem Khan. Technical Specifications I need your help regarding to […]
Delay based Motor Speed Controller Circuit – Timer Controlled
In this post I have explained a delay OFF adjustable motor controller circuit so that the motor can be assigned a fixed predetermined operating time, or delay OFF time. The idea was requested by Mr. Cribey Technical Specifications I really like your website. It is very helpful for so many people. I am trying to […]
