6A H-Bridge with PWM-DIR input and SPI Interface


https://www.electronics-lab.com/project/6a-h-bridge-with-pwm-dir-input-and-spi-interface/

This 6A H-Bridge is designed for the control of DC motors or other inductive loads. The outputs can be pulse width modulated at frequencies up to 20kHz. PWM/DIR control reduces the number of PWM-capable pins needed on the microcontroller side. For load currents above the current limitation threshold (8A typ.) the H-Bridge goes into chopper […]

12-Bit Programmable Contactless Encoder Module


https://www.electronics-lab.com/project/12-bit-programmable-contactless-encoder-module/

The 12-Bit programmable contactless encoder project presented here is based on AS5601 chip. This is an easy-to-program magnetic rotary position sensor module with incremental quadrature (A/B) and 12-bit digital outputs. Additionally, the PUSH output indicates fast airgap changes between the AS5601 and magnet which can be used to implement a contactless pushbutton function in which […]

Programmable Step-Direction Pulse Generator for Stepper, BLDC and AC Servo Motor Drivers


https://www.electronics-lab.com/project/programmable-step-direction-pulse-generator-for-stepper-bldc-and-ac-servo-motor-drivers/

A programmable pulse generator is a very useful tool for stepper, BLDC, and AC servo drivers. Various stepper and servo drivers work with step and direction inputs. This project is the right solution to drive such drivers since it can provide a high-frequency output which is important for most AC servo drivers. The project provides […]

Contactless Potentiometer – 12bit Rotary Position Sensor with Analog or PWM Output
