Hello, Is it feasible to control a large 10 amp DC servo motor (30V) with an Arduino Leonardo? What DC driver board would be suitable? (The DC motor has and optical encoder for positioning info)
Do you have a data sheet for the servo that you can share?
Yes. Please see below.
This is for an ""artificial feel-force feedback"""application. The motor shaft is at rest in the 12 o'clock position. As the shaft is rotated by an external torque, the DC motor provides a reverse torque that is proportional to the angle of rotation. I would like to control that by software, with some function like
reverse torque = angle of rotation x factor or constant.
Where I can input the numerical value of the constant from 0.1 to 10.0. Do I go with DC brushless or brushed. I read up on the advantages, and I cannot seem to fine a compelling reason for one or the other. Or does it not matter, I can go with either?
