Abstract
An electric motor control for a series-wound DC motor for providing speed control and also for controlling regenerative braking. The regenerative braking is energized either when the accelerator pedal is released and/or when a brake pedal is depressed. In addition, the control circuit limits the total vehicle speed and brakes the vehicle if it is stopped and begins to roll due to gravity.
