Hacking old 5 1/4" Floppy drive servo (spindle) mot
Posted: Tue Sep 17, 2002 1:48 pm
Does anyone know how to modify old floppy "disk" drive motors to make the speed variable? These motors usually run at 300 RPM, I would like to be able to infinitely vary the speed between say 150 and 300 RPM. Can this be done without building complex circuitry? If you have done this, what make of drive is the easiest to modify?<p>Any and all help is much appreciated.<p>Cheers,
Raydel
