Product Specifications

Technical details and manufacturing context for Power Module

Definition
A power module is a critical electronic component within a speed controller system responsible for converting, regulating, and delivering the appropriate electrical power from the input source to the connected motor. It manages voltage and current levels to achieve precise motor speed control as dictated by the controller's logic circuits.
Working Principle
The power module typically receives a low-power control signal from the controller's logic board. Using semiconductor switches like IGBTs or MOSFETs, it modulates the high-power electrical supply (often via Pulse Width Modulation - PWM) to the motor. This modulation controls the effective voltage and current delivered, thereby dictating the motor's torque and rotational speed.
