| RE: Difference between 180° vs 360° servo motors and how to control them with Arduino | 3 Relevance | 2 years ago | Yvette | Hardware/Schematic | |
| @amelia Thank you very much for the detailed explanation. I am curious though, what's the difference in their circuitry from the inside which makes one rotate continuously and the other just 180 degrees. | |||||
| How can I build a basic RC car using Arduino? | 2 Relevance | 1 year ago | PCBChronicles | Arduino | |
| I WAnt to create a simple RC car using Arduino and need some guidance on the necessary components and setup. The plan is to Control the car wirelessly but am unsure whether Bluetooth, RF, or Wi-Fi would be the best option. Additionally, I would like to know which Arduino board would be most suitable for this project and what type of motor driver should be used to Control the DC motors. If there are any recommended libraries, circuit diagrams, or example codes to help get started, I would appreciate any suggestions. | |||||
| How to interface stepper motor with Raspberry Pi Pico? | 2 Relevance | 1 year ago | Harper | RPi Pico | |
| I’ve always used Arduino for stepper motor Control, but I recently got a Raspberry Pi Pico and WAnt to try it for the first time. Since the Pico works differently, I’m unsure about the wiring, which driver to use, or how to write the code for smooth operation. What’s the best WAy to Control a stepper motor with the Pico, and how does it compare to using an Arduino? | |||||
| Why Use a DC Motor Controller Instead of a Potentiometer? | 2 Relevance | 2 years ago | hobart bess | Circuits and Projects | |
| Hi everyone, I'm currently working on a project that involves Controlling the speed of a DC motor. I understand that a potentiometer can be used to Control the speed of a motor by varying the resistance, which in turn adjusts the voltage supplied to the motor. Given this, I'm curious about the need for dedicated DC motor Controllers. Why should I consider using a separate motor Controller when a simple potentiometer seems to achieve the same result? I'd appreciate it if someone could explain the advantages or scenarios where a DC motor Controller is preferred over a potentiometer for speed Control. thank you | |||||
| Answer to: What is an ESC? | 3 Relevance | 2 years ago | Deboojit | Arduino | |
| An Electronic Speed Controller (ESC) is a device that regulates the speed, direction, and possibly the braking of a Brushless DC (BLDC) motor. ESCs are commonly used in applications like drones, electric vehicles, and RC cars, where precise Control over motor speed is essential. Here's a breakdown of its main functions: Speed Control: The ESC varies the motor's speed by adjusting the voltage and current supplied to the motor. It does this by rapidly switching the power on and off in a Controlled manner, often using a method called pulse-width modulation (PWM). Direction Control: For reversible ESCs, it can also change the motor's rotation direction by altering the current flow in the motor's windings. Commutation: Unlike traditional brushed motors, which rely on physical brushes and commutators, BLDC motors are electronically commutated. The ESC detects the rotor's position, often using sensors or sensorless techniques, and then energizes the correct windings in sequence to keep the motor turning smoothly. Protection Features: Many ESCs come with built-in protections, such as overcurrent, overheat, and low-voltage cutoffs, to prevent damage to the motor and the ESC itself. | |||||
| Answer to: Why Use a DC Motor Controller Instead of a Potentiometer? | 3 Relevance | 2 years ago | Admin | Circuits and Projects | |
| A motor Controller offers several advantages over a potentiometer when Controlling a DC motor’s speed: Efficiency: Potentiometers dissipate power as heat, making them inefficient. Motor Controllers use techniques like PWM to regulate speed without WAsting energy, preserving efficiency. Maintained Torque: Potentiometers reduce both voltage and torque when slowing a motor. Motor Controllers, using PWM, keep torque high while Controlling speed, ensuring smoother performance. Advanced Control: Motor Controllers provide additional features like direction ... | |||||
| Answer to: Is It Safe to Control 15 LEDs Directly from Arduino Pins? | 3 Relevance | 2 years ago | Admin | Hardware/Schematic | |
| ... 200mA, you are safe. But how do we achieve this? Just use a resistor value big enough so that the current drawn from each pin is around 10mA to 12mA. One downside to this is that your LEDs may not light up properly or remain entirely OFF because of the low current. So the best WAy would be to use a driver like ULN2003. Hope this helps. | |||||
| How can I safely power a BLDC motor from a hard disk drive? | 2 Relevance | 8 months ago | Anil_Tech | Theoretical questions | |
| I have a brushless DC motor taken from an old hard disk drive and I WAnt to power it safely for testing or small DIY applications. Since these motors are usually designed for specific Control circuits, I’m not sure about the correct voltage, current, and driving method. What’s the safest WAy to power and Control a hard drive BLDC motor? Should I use a dedicated ESC, a custom driver circuit, or a microcontroller-based solution?Any tips for determining the correct pinout and avoiding damage to the motor would also be helpful. | |||||
| Answer to: Varactor Diode vs. Tunnel Diode? | 1 Relevance | 9 months ago | Tech_Toy | Theoretical questions | |
| You should use a varactor diode in circuits that require electronic tuning through capacitance Control, such as in voltage-controlled oscillators, frequency tuning stages, or phase-locked loops. On the other hand, a tunnel diode is best suited for applications that demand ultra-fast switching or oscillation at very high frequencies, making it useful in microwave circuits, high-speed switching devices, and specialized oscillators. | |||||

| Best microcontroller or SBC for robotics? | 1 Relevance | 11 months ago | Aiden | Theoretical questions | |
| Hey everyone, My team is working on a robotics project and we're trying to decide which microcontroller or SBC to use. We're considering options like STM32, Teensy, Raspberry Pi, and Jetson Nano. The robot will need to handle real-time motor Control (for 4 wheels), work with sensors like IMUs, encoders, and possibly LIDAR or infrared for obstacle detection, and maybe even do some basic computer vision or data logging. We're looking for a platform that balances real-time performance, processing power, and ease of development. Would love to hear your suggestions or what’s worked for you in similar robotics projects. | |||||
| Best Cheap as Possible ESP32 Boards? | 1 Relevance | 11 months ago | TechyNik | ESP32 | |
| I’m looking to get started with ESP32 development and WAnt to find the most affordable board that still works reliably. There are so many variants out there—ESP32-WROOM, ESP32-C3, ESP32-S3, and countless clones. What are the cheapest ESP32 boards you've used that still perform well for basic projects like Wi-Fi Control, sensor data logging, or IoT experiments? Are the ultra-cheap boards from sites like AliExpress or Amazon worth it, or do they come with issues like instability or poor build quality? | |||||
| Answer to: Effect of PWM frequency on motors and LEDs | 2 Relevance | 9 months ago | nathan | Theoretical questions | |
| PWM frequency doesn’t change the basic Control of speed or brightness (that’s handled by duty cycle), but it does affect how smooth and practical the Control feels. For DC motors, too low a frequency can cause audible whining and jerky torque, while using a frequency in the 2–20 kHz range keeps operation smoother and moves the noise above the human hearing range. Going too high can reduce efficiency due to increased switching losses. For LEDs, low frequencies below ~100 Hz cause visible flicker, which is unpleasant and can be noticeable on cameras as well. Frequencies in the 200–500 Hz range reduce flicker significantly, but for professional lighting or display applications, 1 kHz and above is generally preferred to ensure flicker-free performance. | |||||
