AC Dimmer Arduino Raspberry - 110V/220V Programmable Dimmer

This is the best cheapest DC motor speed controller circuit that you can find on internet.

In the past i tried wit NE555 and other circuits but the results were every time in shorted mosfet`s and not
stoppable GO KART (not very good thing when you do not have a big red kill switch).

In in the following i will present my DC Motor speed controller capable of adjusting speed (PWM) form 0 100%
and the frequency form ~ 400Hz to 3kHz, based on LM339 comparator.

The power supply is from 14-30volts, expandable to practical any value with little modification.

From R15 VR 10k you can adjust the speed from 0 -100%

From R14 VR 100k you can adjust the frequency.

If the jumper JP1 is shorted you can adjust the PWM frequency from 400Hz to 3kHz. If jumper is open Freq is fixed
at 100Hz.

The circuit is designed in Eagle cad 6.2

24.11.2017 DC Motor Speed Controller PWM 0-100% Overcurrent protection (second circuit) Brushless motors, 3Phase inverters, schematics

You can use almost any Channel N mosfet`s you want. The fets will be mounted on a radiator if the current is higher
than 2-5 amp.

It is possible to increase the voltage supply to any value if you separate the power to the logic circuit from power to
the load and mosfet`s

This is my second prototype of dc motor controller

24.11.2017 DC Motor Speed Controller PWM 0-100% Overcurrent protection (second circuit) Brushless motors, 3Phase inverters, schematics

Depending on Rds ON value of the mosfet`s you will need a smaller or bigger radiator.

The wires will be at least 12 AWG for a 30 -35 amp load.

For any questions you can ask me any time via my e-mail found on about menu.

Success with the circuit.

Eagle 6.1 design.

I used as mosfet driver the TC4452 IC with is capable of 12Amp output.

I used this schematic in conjunction with power stage formed by 10 mosfets in parralel with all gate connected via
10pcs 20 ohm resistor to the output of the IC driver.

For current sense circuit i used allegro sensor ACS758

50-200A current sensor IC

The Allegro CA and CB package current sensor ICs are fully


integrated current sensor solutions. They contain the primary
conductor, concentrating ferromagnetic core and the analog
output Hall-effect linear in a single IC package. The conductor
resistance is a typical of 100 for ultra low power loss when
sensing current up to 200 A. These sensors are automotive
grade devices that can take the heat and deliver highly accurate
open loop current sensing in the most harsh applications
environments.

The Allegro medium current devices are much smaller than


bulky current transformers and have the added advantage of
sensing both AC and DC currents. The package design also
provides galvanic isolation to 3000 VRMS and can be used in
many line side applications.

Hello, excellent design, I intend to use it with a dc motor 100v electric treadmill, I want to use IGBT, FET in
place, so Im going to separate the power of the logic on the part of power, you recommend for me, any more
change circuit?

good luck.

Hello,

Thank you for interest,


You only need IGBT if the voltage is above 200v, so in this case is better to put Mosfets.
There is no absolutely need to separate the power source. You need a switching power supply working on
100v dc input and 15 volts output.(not very easy to find)
So it`s up to you what is better.
In this circuit you do not have under voltage protection, to achieve that you need a mosfet driver like.
IR2103.

If you have further questions please do not hesitate to ask.


Success.

Dear Iulian,

I saw your video on youtube for the motor driver. Awesome. What are you currently working on?

Would it be possible to vary the pwm frequency to higher levels?

I am trying to implement a wire edm power supply. I need a (arduino) logic driven mosfet circuit
that can deliver: 50 150 VDC at a few amps with a varying pwm frequency of between 1kHz-
200khz. Any help or advice would be much appreciated. Happy to donate ofcourse. Kind regards
Paul.

Hy
I am planing to do a Pwm-Controller based on a Arduino for my elecrtic car.
I first tried with a Simple Pwm based on a NE555 but I drove half a meter and the Print got overvoltage trough
the Mosfet.
Do I need more protection than a flying diode and the RC compensator?

Thanks dude for the good Description!

Ok but wich use does the secound Mosfet has? Is just to divide the Current?
No the Motor produced overvoltage, and destroid the mosfet and so the ne555.

Thanks for the Help!

Reply

iulian207 says:
October 11, 2012 at 15:54

The efficiency is given by multiple things.


1. Position of hall sensors ( timing)
2. Internal resistance of the mosfets in conduction state.
3. Commutation losses in the mosfets.

Hi there,

Im going to do a speed controller for green power motor that is supplied by 24 DC volt. The running current
will be 10A but the starting current will be around 100A. Do you think it will work safely if I designed a circuit
with voltage regulator, NE555 and transistors. Also, could you please tell me more about NE555 problem that
you had before.

Circuit looks simple and applicable, congrats for your work my friend. However, your switch frequency might
be higher for a better performance. Last week I built a circuit for my 200watt prototype car and set frequency as
100khz. This is a bit high but when I checked oscilloscope data the oscilloscope could not see any ripple. This
might increase your efficiency of your motor, and if you write your specs of your motor we can check a better
frequency if you want.

Buna ziua.

Sint pe cale sa construiesc un vehicule de tip Segway, cu partea electronica pilotata cu un microcontroler
Arduino. Partea mecanica nu-mi pune nici o problema, insa pentru electronica as avea nevoie de o minte
stralucita de roman. Daca vreti sa ma ajutati, trimiteti-mi, va rog, prin email un numar de telefon fix. este mai
simplu de comunicat decit prin email. Cam peste o luna voi veni la Bucuresti si mi-ar fi facut placere sa va

proiecte viitoare.

How many diodes did you use for the 24 mosfets? 1 per bank of 6? How does that work for back emf? That
diode seems way too small! Why isnt it blowing up from the back emf especially when the controller is at a
high frequency and low speed?

Reply

iulian207 says:
August 11, 2013 at 00:56

In do not need any diode. The mosfets have a diode inside. How you can say that diode seems way to
small when there is no diode?
Please document more about the 3 phase brushless controllers, and after came with some mentions.
The controller is working perfectly even at 100Amp. So why is nothing blowing up?
At dc controllers you need a big fat diode for back emf like RURG8060.

I need you to make 3 PCBs of your project and send them to me. I also need you to get all the components

each vehicle. Im joking of course its just funny what some of these people ask you for (actually demand),
and I had to make fun of them a little. Nice circuit though! Ive been working on a 100v 100a DC motor (10hp)
drive circuit and its been a nightmare even when things are rated for 10000 watts, they still burn up (even
with a soft start). Maybe its because I can only afford cheap components from China that are over-rated.

Hello Julian! Great projects you have here!

I build your circuit and I am facing this problem that when I put any load near 15a the circuit shuts down then
I suspend the load and it turn on again after about 5 seconds.

It seems like the energy from the logic circuit is sucked out by the load.
Maybe one capacitor or a diode somewere could solve it but I dont know :S

If you have any Idea of how to solve it would be very much apreciated.

My regards,
Rafael.

Hello,

For 50A if you use 4 mosfets in parallel should be no problem, you can use 4110 is much better. because
the internal ON resistance is 3.5mohmi cand can sustain 120A continuous at (least in the datasheet).

hi,
i want to build a pwm dc motor controller using pic16f877a. the motor is rated 120Vdc, 1/4 hp, 2.8A, 1800rpm.
i have already finshed programming the pic to generate the PWM signals but i dont know how to design the
schematic for the controller. i have read a lot about h-bridge for controlling smaller voltage motors but still i am
confused on how should i apply and modify it accordingly to 120V DC motor. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you for the circuit as I have been looking for something to control 12v DC golf cart motors. Your circuit
looks to be designed for 24 volt but I am wondering if I change the voltage regulator for a 7810 regulator
instead and apply a 12 to 14 volt supply instead if the circuit will continue to work as is.
Unsure if fet control voltages would be effected to the point of damage?
Be grateful for any advice.

Will build and try this but you may be able to save me a lot of time.

Berca,

I built the first DC-motor controller and it worked fine.


the first opamp is a oscillator, the second to compare with a voltage between 2.1V and 9.9V, fed by a
potentiometer of 10k.
Now I want to add a electric scooter throttle, and it seems to be a hall-sensor, fed by 5V, and giving values
between 0.8 V and 4 V.
Can I drop the power of 12v to 6V so I can feed the positive input of the second opamp directly with this range,
if I lift up the ground of the hall sensor with 1 V?
The hall sensor then will operate on 5V, giving ranges of aproximately 1.2 V to 5V measured from ground. The
opamps should operate on 6V fine as well.
Or do I have to change the resistor values of the setting of the two transistors to the Mosfets?

Reply

60. Wendel Doeland says:


May 10, 2016 at 23:16

Second thought:
If I replace the 7812 with a 7805, the Hall sensor output should match exactly the needed input for the
comparator
The mosfets should open on 5v as well if Im not mistaken.
Ill try this weekend and take a look at my scope. Hope my go-kart will go soon now

Hi.
I really need a good pwm circuit for various uses as well as for lower currents as your circuit seems very stable
and as you mentioned, very good to mosfets as I also blew a few more expensive mosfets as I was testing to the
point I had no more.
I was just wondering, is there a way to change frequency on your improved pwm controller or what is the stock
frequency range.
And that pwm output connects to the gate of mosfet(s) and a recovery / flyback diode like a schottky would be
good. Correct me if I am wrong about connecting to the mosfets part.
Good stuff man

If the go-kart circuit works, but the diagram is not the same as the physical circuit that prevails. The big blue

the torque.
I did the gokart project on a bike engine and if it works but it does not have torque, what is it? Nolo se, possibly

To all, Ive built serveral versions of the DC controller of Iulian, all driven to several mosfets, both N as P as
well, and all worked fine. It needs a little tweaking for each version mosfet, and viewing with an oscilloscoop to
get it right, and paralleling multiple mosfets when draining current, but the main piece of electronics is working
ok.
The only thing I really changed was the oscillation frequency, I lowered it by a somehow factor 10, leaving out
R13 and 14 and increasing value of R12. That really made the difference.
At last I added a hall sensor electric motorbike handle, directly to the non inverting input of the first opamp.

Yes, this motor is used on a bicycle.


The original circuit burned the mosfet to take a mountain slope

I use the go-kart pwm circuit, and it works well only on flat ground
In terrain with rise loses force torque.

There is no heating of anything in the circuit.

Outstanding work! I really like the way you approached this and made very intelligent use of lower tech, less
expensive components through great design.
I would like to take a look at converting this circuit in order to control the speed of a 1 Hp DC brushed motor
with rpm feedback perhaps an optical sensor on the motor drive gear or shaft.
I am working on using very cost effective brushed DC motors to convert a lathe over from a 3 phase AC motor
to the DC motor with very precise and stable rpm control operator variable, but automatic feedback rpm
circuitry to keep the rpm rock steady and the torque constant at whatever lathe speed the operator chooses.
Are you interested in taking a look at how to do that? Im sure your approach would be much smarter than
mine, LOL.

Dear Julian207, thank you very much for your outstanding work and your willingness to share. I take back my

I am also designing for a 220 KW motor, a huge thing, and I will forward to you my design for that as well of
course, as you know, its about mosfets that can handle well over a thousand amps in surge current, with
Rds(on) of less than a milliohm or paralleling mosfets in order to achieve well below a milliohm of resistance.
And, of course, heavy heatsinking and fast current limiting, both of which I think most of your responders know
nothing about.
Very Best Regards, in Christs Love, Charles
