Conclusion

3. For many years the motor controller was a box which provided the motor
speed control and enabled the motor to adapt to variations in the load.
Designs were often lossy or they provided only crude increments in the
parameters controlled.
Application:
• Fans in cooker hoods
• Robotic Arms
• Surgery Robots
• Fan controller
• Medical Application (Electrocauter, ...)
• Drums and pumps in washing machines
• Compressors and fans in refrigerators

ABSTRACT

5. DC Motor Modeling
DC Motor plays a crucial role in research, industry and laboratory experiments
because of their low cost.
The position of the motor can be controlled by three methods namely terminal
voltage control method, armature rheostat control method and flux control
method. Here in this paper terminal voltage control method is employed.

Open Loop Systems (Manual Control)
In an open loop control system the controlling parameters are fixed or set
by an oerator and the system finds its own equilibrium state.
Closed Loop Systems (Automatic Control)
Once the initial operating parameters have been set, an open loop system
is not responsive to subsequent changes or disturbances in the system
operating environment such as temperature and pressure, or to varying
demands on the system such as power delivery or load conditions.

8. ARM Microcontroller – STM 32
ARM, originally Acorn RISC Machine, later Advanced RISC Machine, is a family of
reduced instruction set computing (RISC) architectures for computer processors,
configured for various environments. British company ARM Holdings develops the
architecture and licenses it to other companies, who design their own products that
implement one of those architectures—including systems-on-chips (SoC) that
incorporate memory, interfaces, radios, etc. It also designs cores that implement this
instruction set and licenses these designs to a number of companies that incorporate
those core designs into their own products.
A RISC-based computer design approach means processors require fewer transistors
than typical complex instruction set computing (CISC) x86 processors in most personal
computers. This approach reduces costs, heat and power use. These characteristics
are desirable for light, portable, battery-powered devices—including, smartphones,
laptops and tablet computers, and other embedded systems

To use the LCD display, users have to solder
16 pin header pin to the LCD display. Figure
is a 2*16 character LCD and table 1 is all PIN
and connectors.
METHOD

12. Power supply for the circuit
11
User can choose either AC to DC adaptors or 12V to power up the
circuit. Higher input voltage will produce more heat at LM7805 voltage
regulator.
There are two type of power connector for the circuit, DC plug (J1)
and 2510-02 (Power Connector). Normally AC to DC adaptor can be
plugged to J1 type connector
Power supply for the circuit
METHOD

13. Interface L298D
11
The L298 is an integrated monolithic circuit
in a 15-lead Multiwatt and PowerSO20
packages. It is a high voltage, high current
dual full-bridge driver designed to accept
standard TTL logic levels and drive
inductive loads such as relays, solenoids,
DC and stepping motors. Two enable
inputs are provided to enable or disable the
device independently of the input signals.
The emitters of the lower transistors of
each bridge are connected together and
the corresponding external terminal can be
used for the connection of an external
sensing resistor. An additional supply input
is provided so that the logic works at a
lower voltage.
