12v reverse speed control circuit diagram

AI Thread Summary
A user seeks assistance in creating a circuit to control the speed and reverse direction of a 9V motor that can operate up to 24V, using a dual-potentiometer. Recommendations include using a circuit diagram that employs a 555 timer, with output taken from pin 7, and a double pole double throw switch to reverse polarity. The LMD-18200 full H-bridge is suggested for effective forward-reverse pulse width modulation control, allowing for speed adjustments in both directions. Additional details about the motor's specifications are requested for further guidance. This discussion highlights the importance of selecting the right components for motor control applications.

Hi

I have a 9v motor (can run to 24v). I need to control the speed of the motor and reverse the direction. I also wanted to control it with a duel-potentiometer, but i can't seem to find any way to do this. can someone help with a circuit diagram please?
(This is my first time building a circuit so any help you can offer please)

Thanks
Terence

This shows a circuit that looks like what you need.

http://www.dprg.org/tutorials/2005-11a/index.html Note that the output is taken from pin 7 which is unusual but OK in this circuit. Pin 3 is normally the output of a 555.
That would give you variable speed and you would need a Double pole double throw switch to change the polarity of the voltage getting to the motor to reverse its direction.

The motor would be on the right and the input voltage on the left in this diagram.

This National Semiconductor LMD-18200 full H-bridge offers full 3-amp 24-volt forward-reverse pulse width modulation w/braking.You can probably use the PWM to control different motor speeds in forward and reverse. You can also do it with diodes and pots on the output.

Tell us more about the motor rating.

Thanks for the help.
 
Very basic question. Consider a 3-terminal device with terminals say A,B,C. Kirchhoff Current Law (KCL) and Kirchhoff Voltage Law (KVL) establish two relationships between the 3 currents entering the terminals and the 3 terminal's voltage pairs respectively. So we have 2 equations in 6 unknowns. To proceed further we need two more (independent) equations in order to solve the circuit the 3-terminal device is connected to (basically one treats such a device as an unbalanced two-port...
suppose you have two capacitors with a 0.1 Farad value and 12 VDC rating. label these as A and B. label the terminals of each as 1 and 2. you also have a voltmeter with a 40 volt linear range for DC. you also have a 9 volt DC power supply fed by mains. you charge each capacitor to 9 volts with terminal 1 being - (negative) and terminal 2 being + (positive). you connect the voltmeter to terminal A2 and to terminal B1. does it read any voltage? can - of one capacitor discharge + of the...
Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'
I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
