One of the hidden complications of upgrading grain drying and handling systems is providing enough electricity to power the new larger electric motors. Electric ...

KAWASAKI, Japan--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation ("Toshiba") has today started to provide engineering samples of a gate driver [1] IC, "TB9084FTG,” for three-phase ...

The motor calculations presented here apply to changing conditions of a blower motor when pulley adjustments are made. However, these calculations are useful wherever electric motors are used. These ...

It’s impossible to balance line-to-line voltages perfectly in three-phase circuits, so they typically differ by a few volts or more. However, if voltage unbalance exceeds 1%, it can markedly decrease ...

A motor control IC is a convenient way to implement custom motor drive algorithms such as the single-phase induction motor (SPIM) control. A generalized control algorithm, implemented and tested in an ...
