Stepper motor control SDC2

DCpositioningclosed-loop

The SDC2 Control System allows to drive SmarAct Piezo stages in a stepper motor like fashion. The Step-Direction Control System SDC2 is a lowlevel control system which allows to drive our piezo stages in a stepper motor like fashion but with very high resolution. The standard inputs of the SDC2 controller are step and direction signals. Thus, allowing you to profit from the performance of SmarAct stages with only minor changes to your own established control environment. For every step a closed-loop controlled position increment is performed in the specified direction. In order to deliver position to your stepper motor controller the SDC2 supports quadrature signal feedback. Controllers of this product line are available as rack mountable modules, tabletop enclosures or as OEM single board controllers for integration into existing electronics. Compatible Stages - SmarAct stages with stick-slip drives Channels - 2 channels per controller module Sensor Support - L, S Position Feedback - Quadrature feedback (A, B, Index), limit (+/-), home, target reached Stage Interface - 1x DSUB 15 per channel PC Interface - STEP / DIR 5 V TTL or open collector Housing - Single control board (-OEM), tabletop (-TAB), 19'' rack module (2-12 channels, -MOD) Software and Drivers - SDC2 configuration program for Windows
