MC1251A - PMD

MC1251A (MC1x51A) Advanced Step Motor Control Chipset

The MC1451A is a dedicated motion processor which functions as a complete chip-based step motor controller. Packaged in a 2-IC chipset, this device performs trajectory generation and pulse and direction signal generation for use in a wide variety of stepper-based systems. The MC1451A provides an optional third IC which allows incremental encoder signal input.

Features

Advanced control of up to 4 step motors per chipset High speed pulse and direction output S-curve, trapezoidal, velocity contouring, and electronic gearing trajectory modes Optional incremental encoder feedback Software & feature compatible with other versions of PMD's chipset family Available in 1, 2, or 4 axis configurations 32-bit position, velocity, acceleration and jerk trajectory profile registers Pulse and direction output for each axis at up to 1.5 Mpulses/sec On-the-fly stall detection Two travel-limit switches per axis External motion breakpoint per axis Intelligent easy-to-use packe.
