Arduino Tutorials: Control DC Motor Speed with Potentiometer & Buttons | Circuit Tutorial

Learn how to control the speed of a 3-6V DC motor using an Arduino Uno, PWM outputs, a potentiometer, and buttons! In this tutorial, we’ll build a circuit that allows you to adjust motor speed dynamically with a potentiometer or override it using buttons. When the left button is pressed, the motor runs at medium speed; the right button sets it to maximum speed. Holding down either button disables the potentiometer control, giving priority to the button commands.
This step-by-step guide is perfect for beginners and enthusiasts looking to expand their Arduino skills with practical motor control applications.
What You'll Learn:
How to use Arduino's PWM outputs for motor speed control.
How to wire a DC motor with a potentiometer and buttons.
Switching between potentiometer and button control in a circuit.
Key concepts of electronics and motor control using Arduino.
Topics Covered:
Introduction to PWM and Arduino motor control.
