Enrico shows how his Infineon TLE94112EL motor controller shield can be put to work through a simple Arduino sketch.

Control is via an Arduino Nano, with a few push buttons and a 16 x 2 LCD display for user feedback. Often, completing a first build will reveal all manner of limitations and drawbacks of a design.

They’ve taken the field-oriented control algorithm and encapsulated it into a compact Arduino library, added a host of examples, and minted a stackable BLDC motor control shield to boot.

It's backing a new version of the GSM/GPRS Shield add-on (shown here) by offering both the expected machine-to-machine SIMs for the cellular connection as well as freshly added remote control of ...

OMC has launched a fibre optic transceiver shield for Arduino Uno, designed to work with PMMA (polymer) optical cables up to 25m long, plus demonstration software.
