Monitoring and Control of Speed of DC Motor using LabVIEW

Kashif Zaman (FA19-EPE-052)

CEP Summary

- Brief introduction to CEP

The monitoring and control of the DC motors through automation is necessary in industries.
Automation plays a crucial role in today‟s world of instrumentation. Software based data
acquisition and monitoring is the recent need of different industries. Software based data
acquisition, monitoring, controlling and protection is the current need and trends in research
in area of automation for academicians, researchers as well as industries. In many industrial
application alongwith speed the direction of DC motor is also required to change.

- Motivation and applications…

The circuit can be used to drive a single DC motor without Motor Driver IC.
The circuit can be extended to 2 motors by implementing dual H-bridge connections.
Can be used in simple robotic applications to control direction and speed of single motor.

- Problem statement and proposed solution…

- As control of dc motor speed is a

major problem that is leading in
1
 our country. This can be
prevented by
- designing a product that could do
all the control work without
being expensive. The product
that we are
- going to design is low cost
anyone can afford it. This low-
cost system can be plug in with a
simple 9-volt
- battery. This product is designed
so that even a lay man can use it.
The major benefit of this product
is that
- it is low cost
- As control of dc motor speed is a
major problem that is leading in
