Title: DC Motor Current and Voltage
Post by: JordanNUS86 on July 21, 2009, 03:09:51 PM

Hi, it's me again. I'm playing around now with DC motor to see if it suits my robot. As I increase the voltage, the speed increases. I observed that the current also increases by itself. Can I adjust the voltage and the current at the same time or are they related?

generally not. they are related in a way that the more voltage you pump in, the more current it will draw.
