Proportional motor control circuit
A proportional control circuit for the direction and precise speed control of D.C. electric motors such as those used to drive camera tilt/pan mountings. The circuit applies current to D.C. motors in a push/pull proportional scheme whereby slewing speed is smoothly and precisely controlled and electromotive force provides motor braking. A single current source powers the motors through an "H" bridge switching amplifier arrangement responsive to the balance between two voltage dividers, one of which includes a controlling potentiometer that regulates both direction and speed.
