Key Concepts For Running a Brushed DC Motor as a Generator

Although design engineers know that both brush DC and brushless DC (BLDC) motors can operate as generators, many tend to avoid running a brushed DC motor in generating mode because they believe this strategy is inefficient compared with motor use. Unfortunately, by avoiding using brushed DC motors as a generator, engineers pass up a number of benefits.
