This AC motor speed controller can handle most universal type (brushed) AC motors and other loads up to about 250W. It works in much the same was a light dimmer circuit, by chopping part of the AC waveform off to effectively control voltage. Because of this functionality, the circuit will work for a wide variety of loads including incandescent light bulbs, heating elements, brushed AC motors and some transformers.

This simple pulse width modulation DC motor controls the motor speed by driving the motor with short pulses. These pulses vary in duration to change the speed of the motor. The longer the pulses, the faster the motor turns, and vice versa.

This circuit is a fan controller which is using the pulse width modulation method. It is tiny and easy to build.

The circuits on this page are switch machine drivers that can be used to operate Stall-Motor type switch machine motors. The circuits use LM556 dual timer chips to provide a PUSH-PULL output to reverse the polarity of the supply to the switch machine motors.

The circuits on this page are for motor controls using Push buttons and would typically be found in commercial and industrial installations. The circuits do not show the wiring of the motors themselves as this depends on the particular motor type. The type of motor also governs the number of contacts needed for the motor side of these circuits.

This circuit is crude but it does provide an inexpensive way to drive or test servo motor systems without the need for a complete system.

The circuits on this page are basic designs for "Diode Matrix" switch machine control systems that can be used to operate "Stall Motor" switch machines in 'Ladder' type storage yards or other multiple turnout areas. The driver circuits themselves use LM556 dual timer chips to reverse the polarity of the voltage to the switch machine motors.

As the beakman motor have no torque at all, I decided to buil this project based on the design of the regular electric motors. With a medium difficulty, this motor is able to work with a fair load using 6 volts.

This motor is more like Pulse Motor as it pushes the magnets with only one coil. With only 3 Volts, it have three times more torque that the previous one and is easier to build.

This is a circuit for controlling the speed of small DC motors, it works nicely as a speed controller for an HO or N gauge model railroad.
