Motor Driver
Motor drives are circuits used to run a motor. At the end of the day, they are normally utilized for motor interfacing. These drive circuits can be effectively interfaced with the motor and their determination relies on the sort of motor being utilized and their appraisals (current, voltage).

Significant parts in Motor Drives
For DC Motors.
The significant motor drive segments for DC motors are: a controller, a motor driver IC or a motor driver circuit, the ideal DC motor being utilized, control supply unit and the vital associations with the motor.
Controller: The controller can be a chip or a microcontroller.
Motor Driver IC or Motor Driver circuits: They are essentially flow enhancers which acknowledge the low ebb and flow signal from the controller and convert it into a high ebb and flow signal which drives the motor.
Motor: Motor is characterized as an electric or technician gadget that can make a movement. While interfacing with the controller; a portion of the motors like DC motor, stepper motor and brushless dc motor may require a driver IC or driver circuitt. DC motor is a kind of motor that can change over DC into a mechanical power. In a brushless DC motor, it comprises of a DC control source, an inverter delivering an AC sign to drive the motor. While stepper motor is a brushless DC electric motor that changes over electrical heartbeats into discrete mechanical movements.
Power Supply Unit: Provides the necessary capacity to the motor drive.
For servo motor
Servo motor is a sort of actuator gadget that comprises of a motor and a sensor to control speed, quickening and so forth. The significant motor drive segments for a servo motor are a controller, control supply unit, servo motor and the fundamental associations with the motor.
Regularly, motor drive for a servo motor is otherwise called Servo motor controller or Servo Motor Driver. Generally, 8051 controllers are utilized for controlling a servo motor driver with a solitary servo motor. In the event that there are different servo motors; at that point PIC, ATMEGA and so forth can be utilized.
DC Motor Driver Circuits
Motor Driver circuits are ebb and flow intensifiers. They go about as a scaffold between the controller and the motor in a motor drive. Motor drivers are produced using discrete segments which are coordinated inside an IC. The contribution to the motor driver IC or motor driver circuit is a low ebb and flow signal. The capacity of the circuit is to change over the low current sign to a high current sign. This high current sign is then given to the motor. The motor can be a brushless DC motor, brushed DC motor, stepper motor, other DC motors and so forth.

Requirement for Motor Driver circuit/IC
In motor interfacing with controllers, essential necessity for the activity of the controller is low voltage and limited quantity of current. Yet, the motors require a high voltage and current for its activity. As it were we can say the yield of the controller or processor isn't sufficient to drive a motor. In such a case direct interfacing of controllers to the motor is absurd. So we utilize a Motor Driver circuit or Motor Driver IC.
Not just on account of controllers, while associating motors with 555 clock ICs or 74 arrangement ICs; they likewise can't give the enormous current required by the motor. On the off chance that immediate association is given, there may be an opportunity of harm to the IC.
Sorts of DC Motor Driver circuits
1. Transistor Based DC Motor Driver circuit
Transistor Based DC Motor Driver circuit
Transistor based DC motor driver circuit is one of the straightforward DC motor driver circuit. It utilizes a power transistor (D880), DC motor and a resistor for its activity. Let IN be the contribution to the base of the transistor. To the gatherer of the transistor, the DC motor is associated. Producer of the transistor is put to ground. Typical Vcc given to the circuit is 12volt. Here the central matter to note is that, check the DC motor being utilized. While picking the transistor and the DC motor; the present rating must be noted. Continuously the present rating of the DC motor must be littler than that of the transistor being utilized. Utilization of this motor driver circuit is for single course control of the motor; for example Line following Robot.

2. H Bridge circuit
H connect circuit is one of the other regularly utilized motor driver circuit. In automated applications, were the DC motor needs to run in reverse and forward course; H connect circuits assume a significant job. The name H Bridge is utilized in view of the diagrammatic portrayal of the circuit.
Typically the H connect circuit contains 4 switches S1, S2, S3 and S4. These switches can be transfers, or P channel and N channel BJTs, MOSFETs, or they can be N channel MOSFETs as it were. Here a fundamental H connect circuit is appeared in the figure underneath were NPN transistors are put at the high voltage and PNP transistors to the low voltage.
