Power Supply Selection
A high-torque DC motor requires high current during startup and during high load or irregular load
conditions. The general rule of thumb to make sure your power supply is adequate for a DC motor is to
make sure it can supply the maximum current required by the motor during stall condition. It is also good
practice to have sufficient low –ESR decoupling capacitors on the output of the supply before you connect
it to a DC motor drive. This is to make sure that the motor driver does not reset or suffer from variations
in speed due to an insufficient or unregulated supply.
