Rohm Semiconductor has developed an evaluation kit for motor driver devices which is designed as a ‘shield’ to plug directly into the Arduino open source board. There different versions of the kit for ...

We’ve all heard linear motors, like those propelling Maglev trains, described as “unrolled” versions of regular electric motors. The analogy is apt and helps to understand how a linear motor works, ...

Arduino enthusiasts looking for a new project this weekend may be interested in this awesome DIY balancing robot, which has been created using parts that cost roughly $80. Components include two ...

Adafruit has unveiled a new addition to their range of add-on boards with the launch of the new DC Motor and Stepper FeatherWing add-on board, which has been specifically designed for all Feather ...

It’s increasingly common for designers to pair stepper motors with motion-control SoCs. In fact, more design engineers than ever are setting up SoCs themselves for motion applications. These chips ...

Stepper motors are now being used more frequently in industrial environments. Increased performance and reduced size make them increasingly attractive, and their application is no longer limited to ...
