Topic summary

The discussion addresses a project involving a 12V DC motor controlled to run continuously forward and reverse using magnetic reed switches, relays, transistors, resistors, and capacitors. The motor's direction changes automatically based on the activation of two reed switches positioned at fixed points, triggered by a magnet attached to the motor gear teeth. The intended operation cycle includes the motor moving forward until the upper reed switch is activated, then stopping and reversing direction until the lower reed switch is triggered, with a delay-off period between direction changes. The key challenge is reversing the motor without manually changing polarity. The recommended solution involves implementing an H-bridge circuit, which allows polarity reversal electronically. The Wikipedia article on H-bridge circuits was suggested as a resource, showing relay-based switch configurations to achieve forward and reverse motor control automatically.
