Nippon Pulse Motor releases PCD2112 motion control chip

July 14, 2008 - Nippon Pulse Motor released a single-axis control chip, PCD2112. The PCD2112 motion control chip is small, only 7mm x 7mm molded package 48-pin QFP. With Serial Peripheral Interface Bus (SPI) interface, small size and ability to operate with or without CPU, design engineer can easily integrate the PCD2112 into controller board of their design. The PCD2112 can be used with a low-cost CPU to realize intelligent motion control or it can be used without a CPU as a standalone controller. Features of the PCD2112 are: servo interface(in-position, CLR deviation counter); external pulse input function; ability to change speed on the fly; maximum output pulse frequency of 2.4M pulse per sec; encoder input(A, B and index); and S-curve/Linear acceleration/deceleration. Applications for this product are semiconductor manufacturing and inspection equipment, robots, analyzers, and automatic handling equipment. Nippon Pulse Motor Co., Ltd offers various controllers, drivers, and motors to cover almost any stepper motor application.
