12V-24V PWM Motor controller circuit using TL494 and IRF1405

If you are looking for a high quality 24V PWM Motor controller circuits. We have many circuits for you. But today I am going to show you. Using TL494 and IRF1405 may be better for your choice.

Why it is special. Imagine the circuit has the low voltage battery checker system, working with soft start, adjust pulse frequency, and using for 12V or 24V battery at current up to 20A.

And it is small and simple. Not need to program software(without microcontroller).

It uses TL494, HEXFET and LM2940 as main.

There are 3 Circuits below!

12V DC motor speed control PWM circuit using TL494

This is a 12V DC motor speed control PWM circuit. Which using a TL494 (Switchmode Pulse Width Modulation Control IC) is a base for control DC Motor with pulse.

  4. This schematic does not work. There is a missing trace on the board (on the output pin of lm2940). One electrolytic capacitor has inverted polarity (c10). One ceramic capacitor has two different values in schematic file and board file (5.6nf and 56nf). Please someone respond.

    • Hello Nguyễn Minh Chiến,
      Thanks for your visit. It is good, you are interested in this circuit.

      As far as I know, the designer connects both MOSFETs in parallel to drive more current to load.
      It increases the stability of the current.

      Next, I will explain with illustrations to make it easier to understand.
      Please wait for me.

      Thanks
