bumping it up :D

Hi All, I've recently acquired a bricked eBike sporting a DU-E6001 Shimano motor. I'm in the process of converting it to an external motor controller and I'd like to piggyback on the cadence and/or torque sensor that are already present. Torque sensor : it has a 5 wires connector, when the...

Anyone ? :)

Hi everyone, To further illustrate my message : MOSFET : IXFK-FX170N20T http://ixdev.ixys.com/DataSheet/DS100131(IXFK-FX170N20T).pdf on fig. 12 it gives me a safe rating only ~50A @ 100V for 1mS. but more than 200A @100V for µS... On the other hand : IGBT : FGPF4536...

Hi everyone, Been recently looking over transistor datasheets trying to identify a contender for a medium-voltage (120V) high-amp (phase : 100A cont. 300A peak) controler. So I've made some simple conduction losses (not completely up to speed on switching losses yet) and obviously the MOSFET is...

Ok great! I didn't know the word for it... I should find some more infos on it now! Thanks!

Great! Not a lot of infos on this post though... So it will stay low wattage... after all it makes sense, these alternator are usually rated around 2-300W... Ok, now the fun part, does anyone think of a motor that could have the right RPM (8-10kRPM max) & form factor (pancake?) to integrate in...

Hi everyone! Been a long time reader of this great forum, great place, great realizations and great people, or so it seems! Now here's my thought that I'd like to submit to you : To put it shortly : can a motorcycle Permanent Magnet Alternator (three or one phase) be reversed and used -given...
