Freescale motor controller microprocessors available at Digi-Key

From Digi-Key, Freescale microcontrollers offer solutions for controlling variable speed and multi-phase motors. The MC908MR series of flash-based microcontrollers has a 6-channel PWM on chip providing a 3-phase motor solution. For complex speed, position, and torque control, the 56F8300 family is the ideal solution.

The Sound of Mechatronics

 

The Sound of Mechatronics Yamaha’s Disklavier Mark IV piano is more than just ebony and ivory, integrating complex electronic systems and components to take sound where it’s never been before.

The task of building a piano capable of producing the sound quality expected and sought after by the world’s best musicians is a difficult enough task. Add modern digital features—built-in recording and playback, data storage, an LCD touchscreen interface, wireless remote control, and more—into the mix, which is what Yamaha has been doing for years with its Disklavier series, and there is always the potential for disaster.
