Frequency Locked Loop DC Motor Speed Control

The purpose of this project is to control and maintain constant speed of a DC

Motor even at variable loads.
This involves a microcontroller based control system with an input reference
frequency and a feed back frequency (speed equivalent) from DC motor optical encoder.
ptical encoder is to detect speed of a DC motor and converts speed into equivalent
frequency. !nitially DC motor tries to maintain the speed equivalent to the reference
frequency. nce the speed (or frequency) of the DC Motor is locked with the reference
frequency" then onwards the DC motor will maintain constant speed at variables loads
too.
The speed of DC Motor can be varied by varyin# the input reference frequency.
These two frequencies are continuously compared and the difference of these frequencies
#ets converted into equivalent volta#e and fed to DC motor. !f the reference frequency is
#reater than the feedback frequency" then the volta#e input to the motor is increased till
both the frequencies are equal. !f the reference frequency is less than the motor feedback
frequency then the volta#e input to the DC motor is reduced so as to match with reference
frequency.
!n this way the speed of a DC motor can be controlled based on input frequency.
