With a Plug & Drive PD2-N integrated closed loop stepping motor, Nanotec expanded its offering of integrated stepper motors with closed loop sine commutation. Nanotec is expanding NEMA 17 applications ...

Aerotech’s XL4s linear amplifier for closed-loop servo control of voice coil and single-phase motors eliminates the nonlinearities common with PWM amplifiers. The unit provides deterministic behavior, ...

From pan-tilt-zoom cameras to the most highly sophisticated mini robots on the market, a wide array of today’s technologies incorporate some form of motion control system. At the heart of these ...

Experimenting with an HF oscillator, I needed to control the varactor diode voltage in precise increments over a 2V-10V range. A buffered potentiometer was the obvious choice, and connecting two pots ...
