Thats an important point. So you probably won't need fine control of motor speed and positioning? If you can get by with 12v to your motors via simple relay and end-travel switches then driving the motors by PWM is a complication you just don't need. So why do you need to convert 36v to drive the motors? If it is for an air conditioning application can't you just use a 12v mains transformer of suitable current ability? -Roman Batchellor, Gary wrote: > > This is a quasi home automation type project for HVAC.
