PM motor control
PM motor control
(OP)
Looks like the current/thermal qualities of a ua78xx regulator meets the needs of a small PM motor application. I'm thinking of directly driving the motor off the output of the regulator. I would need to add a variable output divider inbetween output-common as to adjust voltage for setup. Here's my query, anyone know a way of turning off the regulator without switching motor power?. Any other suggestions for simplicity sake?.

If that is the case, as the line voltage is constant, the VR will keep the output close to zero, since the VR will not sense requirements to increase the AC voltage.

The uA78** regulators are little three-terminal electronic regulators in a TO-220 package. I've never seen one on a generator field circuit, except buried within the control system power supply circuitry. Are we discussing the same thing here?

Thanks for your explanation. I had no idea.
