Controlling a washing machine motor with an Arduino

Image
In a modern washing machine, the moter that spins the drum is controlled by a motor driver, which is separate from the main control board that manages the washing cycle. The main control board sends commands that set the speed of the motor, and the motor driver generates the three-phase power needed for the motor and regulates the speed of the motor. In this article I will explain how I reverse engineered the motor driver (Magnetek 4246-99-1) from a washing machine and then controlled it with an Arduino. Reverse engineering the original setup In the washing machine, the motor driver received mains power through a relay on the main control board. The motor driver was controlled by the main control board via a 5-pin cable. The pinout is shown in the image below: The main control board communicates with the motor driver using an SPI bus. Data is transmitted in bytes with the most-significant-bit first. On the rising edge of the clock signal, the main board updates the signal on the MO...

Power distribution unit for my school's FSAE team

Image
Currently, my school's FSAE team uses a Bosch PBX90 to distribute power from the car's low-voltage battery to all low-voltage systems in the car. Its main purpose is to monitor for overcurrents, control the order in which boards are powered when the car is turned on, and control power to certain systems in response to commands it receives over a CAN bus. However, the PBX90 has several limitations that needed to be addressed. First of all, the team plans to use a 24-volt low-voltage battery next year, and the PBX90 only goes up to 20 volts. Additionally, the vertical connectors made packaging more difficult and are generally more difficult to use than the Ampseal connectors we use on the rest of our boards. Finally, the PBX90 costs several thousand dollars, so manufacturing an equivalent board in-house would also save money. Thus, I volunteered to design a power distribution unit (PDU) to replace the Bosch PBX90 in next year's and in future ca...

Lightsaber prop - first prototype

Image
In a recent post on Hackaday , I described my initial plans for a lightsaber prop. The final device should be able to generate the characteristic buzzing noise, play sound effects stored on a flash chip, and respond to motion. In this article, I will explain the technical details of the first prototype. Overview As I described in the Hackaday aticle, my plan was to use an ATtiny85 to generate the audio and write to the DAC and use an Arduino Nano to read from the accelerometer and control the lights. The buzzing sould consists of a loop of 833 one-byte samples that are stored in the program memory of the ATtiny. The sound effects are stored as WAV files on the flash chip. The Nano can then write to the ATtiny to control the amplitude of the buzzing or start playback. Thus, the ATtiny must therefore be able to read the buzz sample from program memory, multiply it by its amplitude, multiply the previous playback sample by its amplitude, mix the buzzing and the playback, write to the ...
