ABSTRACT:
A circuit for controlling the speed of a subfractional horsepower DC motor has a driver stage with a switch that interrupts the motor current in repeated succession so that a pulse-like current is provided, and the motor EMF is sampled synchronously with the motor current interruption, with the sampled value being supplied to a comparator wherein it is compared to a rated value. The output of the comparator is used to control the driver stage which includes the switch. Two pulse duration modulators are provided which respectively independently control the motor current and voltage. The pulse duration modulator which controls the current generates pulse pauses which are always sufficiently long to permit the EMF measurement to be completed. The pulse duration modulator operates at a frequency above the audible frequency range so that its pulse pauses are short enough to prevent the motor current from noticeably failing or being completely interrupted.
