2. Pulse-width modulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse-width_modulation

   In electronics, many modern microcontrollers (MCUs) integrate PWM controllers exposed to external pins as peripheral devices under firmware control. These are commonly used for direct current (DC) motor control in robotics, switched-mode power supply regulation, and other applications.

3. Servo control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servo_control

   Servo and receiver connections A diagram showing typical PWM timing for a servomotor. Servo control is a method of controlling many types of RC/hobbyist servos by sending the servo a PWM (pulse-width modulation) signal, a series of repeating pulses of variable width where either the width of the pulse (most common modern hobby servos) or the duty cycle of a pulse train (less common today ...

4. Chopper (electronics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chopper_(electronics)

   Pulse-width modulation (PWM), or pulse-duration modulation (PDM), is a technique used to encode a message into a pulsing signal. Although this modulation technique can be used to encode information for transmission, its main use is to allow the control of the power supplied to electrical devices, especially to inertial loads such as motors.

5. Servo (radio control) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servo_(radio_control)

   The "absolute" type allows up to eight servos to share one communication channel by multiplexing control signals using relatively simple electronics and is the basis of modern RC servos. The "relative" type is the more traditional usage of PWM whereby a simple low-pass filter converts a "relative" PWM signal into an analog voltage.

6. Motor controller - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_controller

   A motor controller is a device or group of devices that can coordinate in a predetermined manner the performance of an electric motor. [1] A motor controller might include a manual or automatic means for starting and stopping the motor, selecting forward or reverse rotation, selecting and regulating the speed, regulating or limiting the torque, and protecting against overloads and electrical ...

7. Vector control (motor) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_control_(motor)

   In vector control, an AC induction or synchronous motor is controlled under all operating conditions like a separately excited DC motor. [21] That is, the AC motor behaves like a DC motor in which the field flux linkage and armature flux linkage created by the respective field and armature (or torque component) currents are orthogonally aligned such that, when torque is controlled, the field ...

8. Duty cycle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duty_cycle

   Electrical motors typically use less than a 100% duty cycle. For example, if a motor runs for one out of 100 seconds, or 1/100 of the time, then, its duty cycle is 1/100, or 1 percent. [10] Pulse-width modulation (PWM) is used in a variety of electronic situations, such as power delivery and voltage regulation.

9. Space vector modulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_vector_modulation

   Space vector modulation (SVM) is an algorithm for the control of pulse-width modulation (PWM), invented by Gerhard Pfaff, Alois Weschta, and Albert Wick in 1982. [1] [2] It is used for the creation of alternating current (AC) waveforms; most commonly to drive 3 phase AC powered motors at varying speeds from DC using multiple class-D amplifiers.
