Also often referred to as a stepping motor, and sometimes known as a step motor. It is a type of induction motor but merits its own entry in this encyclopedia as it has acquired significant and unique importance in electronics equipment where precise positioning of a moving part is needed and digital control is available.

servo motor What It Does,How It Works,Variants,Values,How to Use it and What Can Go Wrong
Should be referred to as an RC servo if it is intended for use in small devices that are remote-controlled and battery powered. However, in practice, the RC acronym is often omitted. What It Does A servo motor is actually a combination of a motor, reduction gearing, and miniaturized control electronics, usually packaged together […]

AC motor What It Does,How It Works,Variants,Values,How to Use it,What Can Go Wrong
The distinction between AC and DC motors has become blurred as controllers for DC motors make increasing use of pulse-width modulation, which can be viewed as a form of alternating current. All motors that consume DC power are referenced in the DC motor section of this encyclopedia, regardless of whether they modulate the power internally. […]

DC motor What It Does,How It Works,Variants,Values,How to Use it,What Can Go Wrong
In this section, the term “traditional DC motor” is used to describe the oldest and simplest design, which consists of two brushes delivering power via a rotating, sectioned com mutate to two or more electromagnetic coils mounted on the motor shaft. Brushless DC motors (in which DC is actually converted to a pulse train) are […]
