| Often, people attempt to control DC motors with a variable resistor or variable resistor connected to a transistor. While the latter approach works well, it generates heat and hence wastes power. This simple pulse width modulation DC motor control eliminates these problems. It controls the motor speed by driving the motor with short pulses. These pulses vary in duration to change the speed of the motor. The longer the pulses, the faster the motor turns, and vice versa. |

| If 24 VDC 10 AMP motor is brushed motor, you need KDS24050E, if it is brushless motor, you need KBS24051. Kelly controller is good. Their controller improves the perfomance of my motor. You can try it. Their website: newkellycontroller.com | ||
| What is the best type of controller I can build for my 24 VDC 10 AMP motor? Im really wanting to know a most efficient design. Would it be a PWM integrated into an H-Bridge set up? Thanks all. | ||
| Definitely needs a freewheeling diode as someone else said. If there is no diode the drain voltage of the mosfet when it turns off will fly up high enough to avalanche the fet and make it run very hot. Diode will improve efficiency quite a lot. Use a schottky type for voltages up to about 50v. | ||

| There are enough PWM circuits around the internet based on the 555 for anyones handy use. Size the output transistor ( ideally a power FET ) for whatever you are driving, and limit the supply to the 55 to about 15vd max, Its not too particular about it's supply being ' well regulated' the whole point of it's design! | ||

||
| In fact, this circuit WILL NEVER work ! ! The motor will never spin ! ! there is a component missing ! ! Without a freewheeling diode in parallel with the motor, it doesn't even start spinning... (Editor's notes: It works as pictured. I've built it several times. However it is simply not a PWM controller, but a pulse-frequency-modulation controller.) |

| this is a pulse FREQUENCY motor speed controller, not Pulse width. you are only varying the frequncy of pulses , and it will always operate at 50% duty cycle. | ||
| So how do we to go about doing a PIC based PWM motor speed controller? Any schematics to help ? thx! | ||
| This circuit does not produce PWM. The two Cmos inverters are connected as an ordinary variable frequency oscillator. The motor will receive a square-wave so will run at about half power. Changing the frequency will change its power a little because of its inductance. When the pot is shorted then the motor will jump to full speed or will stop. | ||

| Check out the integrated circuit manufacturers like NXP.They have various chips for the job as well as application notes. As for that cnc job with the drooping verticle axis,I suspect you may be dealing with a logic transient condition ; an untested power sag related fault in the control/feedback circuitry.The fact that you get no creep on an E Stop switch condition sez she's power/reinitialization related.Check with the machines manufacturer who may have a mod and or controller software upgrade.Also make sure your power is right,no 208vac for a 220 machine etc...youd be surprised at the c**p that brings up. | ||

| The comment about putting a diode shunt across the motor addresses a valid point. The inductance of the motor may produce large voltage spikes that possibly can destroy the power transistor. Having built a similar circuit I can attest that the shunt diode should have a current capacity equal or greater than the drive current. I tried a 6 amp diode on a 1/2 HP 24V motor. I got half a block down the road and it failed as a short which blew out a bank of transistors rated for 100 amps.(I had no fuse) After a rebuild, I used a 50 amp diode and it worked well ever since. | ||

| A 1N4002 rectifier diode should be added across the motor, with the cathode to positive. It should be on the left side of the polarity switch. This is to prevent spikes from the motor from damaging the MOSFET. One other observation. If I remember correctly, the oscillator always puts out a pulse with exactly a 50% duty cycle. So no matter how you adjust the speed, the motor will never be able to run as fast as if it had the 6VDC directly applied. And since the frequency is varied, it is likely that the inductance and other characteristics of the motor will greatly influence the speed. I think I would build this as a test circuit abd experiment with it before I would depend on it for use in an operating project. | ||
