I'm looking to buy/design/build/modify an existing device. anything really.
I have a brushless motor (6-12v DC 2.5 amps) i wish to vary the speed on and it must be done via voltage change. (no PWM, motor does not like it at all..and neither does the switcher FET.)
I would like to get a power supply to drive it that will vary from 6 volts DC to 12 volts DC at ~3 amps using a pot.
IE: all the way down outputs 6 volts DC, all the way up outputs 12 volts DC. Dropping under 6 volts DC results in the motor stopping all together which is bad. so it must stay above 6v.
i'm thinking an adjustable voltage regulator power supply of some description.
I have, at my disposal, various power supplies and i'll likely use a 24 volt supply so the voltage offset from whatever regulator and circuit won't be an issue.
iv'e been digging through ebay looking at power supplies and kits and whatnot, and havent found anything that i think would work.
Maybe i'm just looking at this the wrong way.
any thoughts?
