Motor driver boards and modules are circuitry designed to provide adequate power and control for various motors, including AC, DC brushed, brushless, servo, and stepper motors. The boards comprise an open frame design and are mounted at the user's discretion, while modules consist of some enclosure type and are mounted using flanges, tabs, and DIN rail. Motor driver boards and modules are high-current and high-voltage drivers that accept standard inductive loads at the TTL logic level, including:
- Solenoids
- DC motors
- Relays, and
- Stepper motors.
What is a Motor Driver Made up of?
The motor driver is made from discrete integrated components inside an IC. These low current signal circuits are used to convert their low signal into a high signal current, which is then transferred to the motor.
What are Non-Reversing Starters?
Non-reversing starters are three-phase motor controllers with a motor contactor; designed to open and close the power supply circuit, which ultimately turns the motor off or on. In contrast, a reversing motor is a three-phase motor controller having two motor contactors that are reversed using a reverse or forward motor contactor.
What are Motor Controllers?
Motor controllers are electric motor devices designed to regulate the electric motor's operation. Motor controllers are essential as microcontrollers generally provide roughly 0.1 Amps of current while motors and actuators, such as DC motors, DC gear motors, and servo motors, need several current Amps.
Servo Motors and Servo Drives
Servo motors and drives are essential components in a piece of machinery that require complex position control, including conveyor belts, camera focus, robotics, and automation. Servo drives comprise four major components; a drive, a motor, a controller, and a feedback device. The controllers control and determine the instructions needed for the motor and command the drive to transfer the instructions or energy. This electrical energy is sent to the motor and moves as needed.
