it's not pwm which is a switch-mode regulation. It's a lot more simpler. the module is only powering that hbridge to make the motor spin clockwise and cc.

my method has low noise, very easy to implement , and can be made with next to nothing materials... pretty much the same response everywhere with people doubting me... i think im done working on this project... fuck this lol

>>2040604
you have a ywrobot power supply hooked up to an l293d and a motor... explain the part that is unique?

>>2040604
1. get a small business loan for electronics
2. patent your fucking dumb ass potato
3. ???
4. profit

alternatively
1. flip burgers for a week
2. use paycheck to file a patent
3. ???
4. profit

patent is worthless if you dont have money for the lawsuits that ll follow

>>2040730
bullshit

>patent is worthless if you dont have money for the lawsuits that ll follow
This

Don't waste money on patents. Just use your device to make the world a better place for yourself.

>low noise, very easy to implement
so PWM
>people doubting me
because your post has all the hallmark signs of a schizoposter with no actual information or verifiable facts. Here's a novel concept: Some dude in his garage with no backing or background is extremely unlikely to find something so simple that hasn't been done before. And if you were smart enough to figure that out, you wouldn't be asking people on an ayy lmao shitposting forum for advice. Retard schizo.

It's not bullshit you fucking dweeb, you are expected to defend your intellectual property rights, if you do not then a court can determine you no longer assert your rights over it and so no longer in fact have a patent over the IP.

Actually useful patents submitted by randoms are immediately copied by bosch or Microsoft and put into production without a second thought for you. You're now expected to sue them and reach settlement out of your own time and money or don't, in either case they're using your shit and you can't stop them in 99% of cases.

assuming you are are noone and have no connections, your best bet is to publish it in some cheap sci journal and then try to sell the idea for cheap, inventeros never get much from the inventions its always some rich fuck from marketing or investor

>>2040604
I'm missing what this device is supposed to do. Are you spinning the motor and producing power? are you spinning the motor using power applied to the h-bridge?
You gotta give some more info of wtf is going on if you want help.

>>2040923
what are you talking about? The people posting on 4chan are the smartest, most intelligent minds in the world. This website is the forefront for all cutting edge science and invention

>I just found a new method of producing variable electric power
What you did is overengineer one of these guys (pic related)
>how do i get this funded
Ya don't. Nobody's gonna invest in it for three reasons:
1. A knob with 2 wires is cheaper, easier to manufacture and easier to replace than some complex microchip controller
2. Whatever you made there probably already exists in machines that require fine tuning (you know how, on your phone, you can turn your volume up and down by actually not using any buttons and instead just touching the screen? Yea, that.)
3. You haven't even perfected the damn thing. I can tell that just by the fact that your circuit is on a fucking breadboard. You haven't even reached the point where you can call your invention done, let alone the moment where you can start to wonder how your machine would ever see use in the real world.
What are you gonna do? Patent this, then change it a little bit, then patent that too, then make another change, patent the 3rd prototype as well, and so on? Man, those guys at the patenting office are gonna love you. 50 patents for one device that ends up being worthless.
>funding to keep working on it
It's a chip and two resistors! You're not building spaceships for fuck's sake! You could get that shit for 15 bucks, even less if you have a thing for scavenging broken electronics (by the way, if you're really into electronics, buy a multimeter, then just gather all the electronic junk you can find and start taking it apart. I have a literal bucket of perfectly good components that I only paid my own work for.)
>probablybrainlet
your assumption is correct.

A MTester, a TS100 soldering iron with BC-2 tip, a few cheap small yellow multimeters and a large proper one, >1.0mm solder, 60Sn38Pb2Cu, SMD resistor and capacitor books, a 50 1W white LEDs, TRRS jacks, desoldering wick.

What is that supposed to mean? Why did you list all those things?

>>2040604
when it comes to anything new there are questions which will either be your selling points or why nobody gives a fuck. this is not meant to discourage you but are realities even companies deal with

1) cost. is it cheaper. if not thats a mark against it

2) does is exceed existing limitations of existing technology. if not thats another mark against it

3) would it require any one to do anything differently. sounds stupid right its a new concept of course but outside of what it does will any one have to wire anything differently. if so thats a mark against it

if you have 2 marks against it it will not be funded by default. you may need to adjust whats done

I mean, while fucking around I managed to PWM drive a CPU fan with a 555 even though the frequency was out of the fan's spec, but I didn't think I revolutionised motor controllers. Why can't brainlets be a bit more humble?

learning a new subject is hard, and thinking you've discovered cold fusion is rewarding
it sounds dumb and it is dumb, but it also encourages experimentation

>>2040711
You forgot "hole punched in wall or door" and "annoying neighbour how to fix"

>>2040604
I don't think you can patent someone else's part.
