The monitor's wide 2.7 to 20-V supply range makes it practical for a broad range of applications power supply, DC motor and solenoid control, battery management, over-current monitor, power management ...

Others take the brushed DC route if they’re lucky enough to score a motor — and then the challenge becomes getting the most performance without burning up your controller.

The ZXCT1050 translates the voltage across an external sense resistor into an accurate proportional output current. Since the monitor’s voltage gain is programmable – accurately set using two external ...

Running a brushed motor in muddy or dusty environments takes a toll on controllers, with both heavy back EMF and high stall currents. This explains one of the challenge in Europe’s Hacky Race… ...
