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 ...

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.

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… ...
