Summary

DC motor control systems are explained. Students learn about controlling speed and direction of DC motors using microcontrollers. The document covers the design of a controlling circuit and the operation of that circuit.

DC Motors in Industry

DC motors are widely used in industrial automation. They are used in various applications like flat belt, flow-control and mixing of substances. DC motors are easier to control than other kinds of motors. DC drives change the speed and direction of motion of the motor.

Circuit Operation

Pushbutton switches control different functions of the circuit. The microcontroller sends signals to drive transistors and relays. The microcontroller generates a PWM signal to control the motor's speed. The base frequency of the generated PWM signal is 500 Hz.

Motor Control Functions

The motor control functions include starting the motor in different modes. The modes are continuous, reversible or jogging. The direction of the motor can be changed. The speed and time of the motor can be increased or decreased.

Microcontroller Features

The AT89C51 is a low-power, high-performance microcontroller. It has 4Kbytes of Flash memory and 128 bytes of RAM. It provides a cost-effective solution to many embedded control applications. The microcontroller supports two software selectable power saving modes.

Key terms

DC drive
