Abstract
Abstract A circuit arrangement for regulating the rpm of an electric motor having series connected field and armature windings 1, 4 comprises a controllable rectifier 5 which is connected in series with the motor and is controlled by a phase control unit 30 as a function of a control signal obtained at armature winding 1 and conducted via an operational amplifier 12. To achieve a very constant rpm and a high regulating speed with simple means, each terminal of armature winding 1 is connected to one input 10, 11 of a differential amplifier 12 whose output 15 is connected to one input 19 of a comparator. At its second input, the comparator is given a desired value signal which is changed in dependence upon the current flowing through armature 1.
