To control the speed of a DC motor using a circuit of speed controller in the image above can be done by adjusting the lever potentiometer VR1, where the lower the reference voltage supplied to the operational amplifier (Op-Amp) U1b the faster the rotation speed of the DC motor and the higher the reference voltage supplied than the slower rotation speed of a DC motor.
To improve the ability of a circuit of speed controller in the image above can be done by replacing the MOSFET IRF521 MOSFET that has the ability to drain a large current. IRF521 MOSFET in the circuit’s speed controller needs to be equipped with cooling (heat sink) to absorb the heat generated when the MOSFET circuit PWM DC motor controller with MOSFET work.
