I've got a motor that i bought from electronics goldmine. it was rated at 9v DC, not sure what the current is. here's the info:
Tiny pager motor made for Motorola Products - This tiny pager motor body is only .44" L x .18" Dia. It has a weight attached to its shaft. These make great motion generators to cause movement in tiny robots, and are also useful in making silent alert alarms, timers etc. Has 2 flexible terminals for power connection. Will operate from 1VDC up to 9VDC. Resistance of the motor is 10 ohms. This pager motor has a black rubberized boot that can be removed to reduce its size even further. It is one of the smallest and best quality pager motors we have ever offered.
G13566
When i hook it up to a 9v battery it burns up and stops working in less than a minute. So, my question is, am i giving it too much voltage or too much current? and would a voltage or current divider work to fix this problem?
