MIAC motor controller

Post by Rav »

hello

I have some queries about controlling the speed and direction of a dc motor using MIAC. Suppose i made a full bridge connection between outputs A and B, which of these outputs should i be turning on and off? Should one of these outputs always remain on? What should be the state of the output to turn the motor off?

Thanks

Hi,

For bridge control, say forwards, you would use OutputOn(1) and OutputOff(2),
that would drive A high (source) and B low (sink)

For the opposite direction you would use OutputOn(2) and OutputOff(1)
that would drive B high (source) and A low (sink)

Stop would be OutputOff(1) and OutputOff(2)

Regards,
Leigh
