Michael Piercy - Design Notebook

Week of Oct. 31

November 3, 2011 (3 hours):
Stopped by VIP lab after work today to help finalize a variable output from the PWM. Able to change frequency and duty cycle of the motor driver. More research on the frequency aspect needs to be researched. After using the circuit from ECE362, we discovered that high frequencies do not get along well with that circuit.

November 1, 2011 (2 hours):
More web page research and PWM/motor control circuits researched.


WEEK SUMMARY:

Accomplishments: Constructed a relatively simple circuit from ECE362 to control dc motor w/ pwm output from development board.
Weekly Work Total: 5 hours
Project Work Total: 5 hours
