Think you’ve got what it takes to build a homebrew brushless motor? As [JaycubL] shows us, it turns out that a bldc motor may be living in pieces right under your nose, in scraps that so many of us ...

Brushless DC (BLDC) motors are standard fare in low-precision, speedy RC applications. The control schemes needed to run them slowly or precisely go deep into motor theory and might put these motors ...

In this article, I’ll dig into a couple of things you need to know when it comes to using salvaged hard disc drive spindle motors. Most electronics hobbyists think that such hard disc drive spindle ...

Brushless DC (BLDC) motors transform electrical power into mechanical power. However, there’s no such thing as a perfect motor; there are always losses in the transformation. The three main types of ...

Cordless power tools are becoming the primary choice in both the professional and consumer markets for low-to-medium applications (Fig. 1). Workshop tools include screwdrivers, saws, drills, rotary ...

With its ever-increasing electronic content, the modern automobile places a premium on energy-efficient design. That’s doubly true for hybrid-electric and full-electric vehicles (HEVs and EVs), in ...
