How Many Motors can the Netduino Control?

17 June 2013 - 03:09 PM

Hello!

 

I was just wondering how many motors the Netduino could control with an H-bridge setup, controlliing only on/off and direction of the motor. The only examples I have found are of 2 motors. Is it possible to control more? how many?


A few questions about motors etc

10 June 2013 - 01:49 AM

Hello forum!

 

I have recently acquired a Netduino plus 2, and I had a few questions about Motors and the size/number of motors that can be controlled by the Netduino as well as which set up would work best. 

 

 

the following forum thread:

http://forums.netdui...l-power-source/

 

second post lists 3 possibilities for controlling motors with the Netduino

 

1: transistors

2: H-bridge

3: Motor sheild

 

I'm interested in 1 and 2.

 

which would be better for a beginner?

which can control more motors?

 

How many motors can be controlled by the Netduino? the only examples I can find involve 2 motors.


How does Netduino interact with a Computer

04 June 2013 - 02:10 AM

Hello

 

 

recently i bought a netduino plus 2, and i've run a few peices of code on it (blinking LED etc)

 

 

i have a few questions as to how the netduino works while it's running code

 

 

1: Can the commands going to the Netduino pins (the ones that control motor etc) come from sources coming from the computer?

 

is the following possible:

 

I have a program with a form open, and i type in a number (lets say, speed of a motor) into a textbox and hit enter. the program will tell the netduino to adjust the speed of the motor to that "speed" on the fly (i wont have to re-debug the code to apply the speed change)

 

2: Can you integrate Netduino code into other applications (or make it so that the 2  diffrent applications interact?)

 

3: Can i incorporate diffrent sensors plugged into my computer with the Netduino or make them work with each other so that data from the sensor can interact with the Netduino?

 

 

thanks!


Larger Motors + Netduino

01 June 2013 - 04:27 PM

Hello.

 

Im very excited about the Netduino and its ability to control motors. I got my Netduino Plus 2 in the mail a few weeks ago and ran a few peices of code through (the blinking LED etc). I have read about the Netduino's ability to interact with motor sheilds and control small servos and 5v DC motors.

 

However, Im looking to integrate larger motors, but the only information I can readly find focuses on the 5v motors. I was wondering if anyone could direct me or give some advice on how to integrate larger motors into the netduino.
