Chopper current driver

 · Chopper is a basically static power electronics device which converts fixed DC voltage/power to variable DC voltage or power. It is nothing but a high speed switch which connects and disconnects the load from source at a high rate to get variable or chopped voltage at the output.  · A chopping frequency of around Hz, as shown in Figure , is typical of medium and large chopper drives, while small drives often use a much higher chopping frequency, and thus have lower ripple current. As usual, we have assumed that the speed remains constant despite the slightly pulsating torque, and that the armature current is continuous. In electronics, a chopper circuit is any of numerous types of electronic switching devices and circuits used in power control and signal applications. A chopper is a device that converts fixed DC input to a variable DC output voltage directly. Essentially, a chopper is an electronic switch that is used to interrupt one signal under the control of another.

In electronics, a chopper circuit is any of numerous types of electronic switching devices and circuits used in power control and signal applications. A chopper is a device that converts fixed DC input to a variable DC output voltage directly. A chopper drive allows a stepper motor to produce high torque at high speed by turning voltage on and off rapidly (aka “chopping”) to control motor current. Skip to primary navigation Skip to main content. A chopper driver should be able to keep a constant current to the motor. So if we use a A motor, the driver will regulate the voltage to the current is always around A. I've read that one way to regulate the current would be to PWM the windings to regulate the voltage.

Wendy Peck once spent a year driving 30, miles around North America. “I’m a confident driver,” says the Canadian meeting planner—“always have been.”Until, that is, she spent a winter driving in and out.
