Motors and Microcontrollers 101

Curious about connecting a motor to your microcontroller? In this NerdKits video tutorial, we explore motors from an electrical perspective, and see how back EMF, resistive, and inductive considerations lead to the design of a motor control circuit. Finally, we show two demos, one with a motor controlled with a toggled digital output, and the other with pulse width modulation (PWM) to adjust the speed in proportion to the temperature. For more details, source code, and more, see: www.nerdkits.com
