This STEVAL-IHM012V1 evaluation board employs a traditional design that illustrates how the chopper circuit controls a brush DC motor with a microcontroller as a driver.
The purpose of the board is to demonstrate an ST solution for low-end cordless power tools, such as cordless drills or screwdrivers, but can be an ideal starting point for the design of any application where driving a low voltage DC brush motor is required.
Based on a power MOSFET and microcontroller, the electronic driver is a simple, cost-effective solution for designers. |
