Toshiba Electronics Europe GmbH has begun engineering sample shipments of the AEC-Q100 compliant TB9M030FG, a new addition to ...

Electric fans commonly use low-cost AC motors built around capacitors, which now increasingly demand replacement due to high power consumption. However, while three-phase brushless DC (BLDC) motors ...

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 ...

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 ...

In the original version of this article, the second figure contained an error. The image has been updated. It’s important for engineers to have a good, working ...

The topic of motors and motor control techniques is wide and varied. Part one of this two-part article will cover the principles of alternating-current (AC) motor operation and control. Part two will ...

Novel bi-phase piezo motor enables accurate linear motion in an extremely compact package, new from PI. PI’s B-421 miniaturized piezo stages provide 10 nm positioning resolution in an extremely ...

Early incarnations of the electric motor first appeared in the 1740s through the work of Scottish Benedictine monk and scientist, Andrew Gordon. Other scientists such as Michael Faraday and Joseph ...
