Abstract: The DC motor is an
attractive piece of equipment in many industrial applications requiring variable
speed and load characteristics for its ease of controllability. The speed
control of DC motor is very crucial in application where precision and
protection are of essence. Purpose of motor speed controller is to take error
correcting signal representing the required speed and to drive a motor at fix
speed. Embedded based speed control system consists of electronic component and
some sensors.In this work, development of hardware
and software of the closed loop DC motor speed control system have been
explained and illustrated. The desired objective is to achieve a system with
the constant speed at variable load condition. That means motor will run at a
fixed speed instead of varying with amount of load.
