Scientists have developed a dye process that helps detect wear-and-tear on electric motor wire insulation. Typically, engineers can tell the condition of an electric motor by the wear on the ...

This paper discusses why appliance designers should consider Hall-effect sensor integrated circuits (ICs) for motor control. This document covers several key design characteristics that improve motor ...

This application note presents BLDC motor control using sensor sinusoidal PWM modulation with Z32F128 microcontroller. It also discusses ways on how to implement sinusoidal PWM modulation and ...

In the first installment of this series, "Calculating a practical hotspot safety margin", we discussed how two-parameter thermal models assume that the entire motor, including windings, exhibits one ...

Your car's camshaft — or camshafts if your vehicle has a DOHC engine — is a vital component that plays a critical role in the internal combustion process. Its job is to synchronize the opening and ...

A big reason that the small-block Chevy was so popular with the Bow Tie crowd was because for decades it changed very little, making upgrades and interchangeability easy. The same can be said for the ...
