I have a Sony BHF-1600a 12v capstan motor from a 1" tape player. It spins sooo nice and smooth when I turn it manually.
I would lile to get it spinning, and play around at determing if it is suitable for a turntable motor.
Anyone know the 8-pin pinout labels on the original control board? Or could point me where to find it? I assume either one or two pairs of +12V / 0V pins, and some other speed control pins, but not sure where to find out.
I plan to play around with an Arduino to control it once I know the inputs.
If not, I drop the control boards and tackle running it off the bare magnets with that Arduino + a motor control boa
rd like I do with my BLDC motors.
Thanks.

Hi,
This motor will be nice to rotate by hand as it has no iron core (teeth) on stator, co it is cogging free. This does not mean it has no dynamic torque ripple.
Look at my thread "Limestone turntable...." particularly posts #153 and #206 and on-wards, There you will find many clues.
Cheers,
