  2. DC motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DC_motor

    A compound DC motor connects the armature and fields windings in a shunt and a series combination to give it characteristics of both a shunt and a series DC motor. [5] This motor is used when both a high starting torque and good speed regulation is needed. The motor can be connected in two arrangements: cumulatively or differentially.

  3. H-bridge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H-bridge

    By connecting its terminals, the motor's kinetic energy is consumed rapidly in form of electrical current and causes the motor to slow down. Another case allows the motor to coast to a stop, as the motor is effectively disconnected from the circuit. The following table summarizes operation, with S1-S4 corresponding to the diagram above.

  4. Armature Controlled DC Motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armature_Controlled_DC_Motor

    A motor requiring a DC power supply for operation is termed a DC motor. DC motors are widely used in control applications like robotics, tape drives, machines and many more. Separately excited DC motors are suitable for control applications because of separate field and armature circuit. [1] Two ways to control DC separately excited motors are ...

  5. Electric motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_motor

    A miniature coreless motor. The coreless or ironless DC motor is a specialized permanent magnet DC motor. [74] Optimized for rapid acceleration, the rotor is constructed without an iron core. The rotor can take the form of a winding-filled cylinder, or a self-supporting structure comprising only wire and bonding material.

  6. Brushless DC electric motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brushless_DC_electric_motor

    The motor from a 3.5 in floppy disk drive. The coils, arranged radially, are made from copper wire coated with blue insulation. The rotor (upper right) has been removed and turned upside-down. The gray ring inside its cup is a permanent magnet. This particular motor is an outrunner, with the stator inside the rotor. DC brushless ducted fan. The ...

  7. Brushed DC electric motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brushed_DC_electric_motor

    A brushed DC electric motor is an internally commutated electric motor designed to be run from a direct current power source and utilizing an electric brush for contact. Brushed motors were the first commercially important application of electric power to driving mechanical energy, and DC distribution systems were used for more than 100 years ...

  8. Stepper motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stepper_motor

    A stepper motor, also known as step motor or stepping motor, [1] is a brushless DC electric motor that rotates in a series of small and discrete angular steps. [2] Stepper motors can be set to any given step position without needing a position sensor for feedback. The step position can be rapidly increased or decreased to create continuous ...

  9. Motor drive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_drive

    DC drives are DC motor speed control systems. Since the speed of a DC motor is directly proportional to armature voltage and inversely proportional to motor flux (which is a function of field current), either armature voltage or field current can be used to control speed.
