  • In this episode Shahriar demonstrates one of the simplest magnetic levitation circuits. First, the basic concept of magnetic levitation is examined. Two different methods of detecting the location of the levitating object is presented and the Hall effect sensor method is chosen. A semi-digital overall system is implemented where a PWM control IC is employed to control the magnetic field strength. The block diagram and functionality of this IC is presented. Finally, the schematic of a dual-Hall effect sensor solution is presented. The circuit is built and tested in both open-loop and close-loop configuration. Magnetic levitation is demonstrated with the capability of adjusting the levitation location. The schematic of circuit can be downloaded from The Signal Path website.

    As I have commented many other times, you are a good guy! it is so awesome and inspirational that you are giving back, it makes me want to be a better person... Back in the 90's I did a very similar magnetic levitation project as part of a controls class final project except we needed to do a full blown analog controller, as I recall it was much more complicated than your approach. Thanks again

    this helped explain hall effects pretty well. I'm currently trying to make a diy 500g-1kg (it be great if more) electro magnetic levitator with conventional metal infused PLA filaments with my 3d printer. its a very slow tedious process but im finally making some leeway in my current prototype demo thanks to this video. I need to find a real ferrite outter circle though for the 3d printed electromagnets (used electromagnetic filament for the base of the 4 electro magnets and copper wire wrapped around)Thank you!+thank you to all the commenters putting a lot of other equations here.

    The system has feedback, it does not operate in open loop. In fact, it won't work in open loop at all. There is feedback around the error amplifier which goes all way the way through the electro-magnet, Hall-effect sensor before it is fed back to the error amplifier.

    I love the two Hall-effect sensor idea, that's genius.
    It appears as if you have damaged the two large electrolytic capacitors during your fine-tuning. the tops of them are obviously bulging after too much heat was generated internally.

    Great video, really takes the snore out of my controls class and gives more intuition as to what and why i study controls. But if i do build this gadget i'd probably try to make it levitate using a knight rider effect on it. But again thanks for the inspiration and intuition, looking forward to more videos from you.

    I have to say that this video was absolutely awesome to say the least! To be honest, for some of your other videos, I have stopped watching after 10 minutes or so because they have been way too fast progressing, too complicated with advanced terminology and generally difficult to follow. This video was the complete opposite. Easy to follow and understand, which made it VERY interesting. Thank you.

  • @gregzinhao
    @gregzinhao 11 років тому

    You are right. But what I meant is that the IC would work much better, as PWM controller, with some feedback at the error amplifiers. In open loop, with the near infinite gain, the amp works as a comparator and the system runs as bang bang control. The ringing inside the Ton time of the output square wave is the hysteresis loop working at the middle of bandwidth of the feedback loop.

  • @Thesignalpath
    @Thesignalpath  11 років тому

    There are of course many ways of doing this. The IC was available and provided an opportunity to introduce a new part people can learn about.

    I am uncertain how well it work with something like that. It all depends on how much the steel ball influences the magnetic field going through the Hall effect sensor at the bottom, and I am not sure if it will have a strong effect on it.
