LUDL 73006056 Focus Motor Drive for MAC6000 with Encoder Input

The 73006056 modules are self-contained microprocessor motor controllers with a high performance regulated linear microstepping driver. The linear driver provides the highest accuracy without excessive motor heating or EMI radiation that can sometimes be a problem with conventional chopper type drives. All functions are built-in to the module: analog joystick control, digital joystick control, limit switches, pre-limit input, open or closed loop stepper motor control, configurable microstepping resolution and motor current selection. This module's step-motor connector supports two phase stepper motors with CW and CCW limits, home position signaling, encoder inputs and a single pre-limit. A SYNC-OUT connector has step pulse output as well as inputs/outputs for move triggering. The separate encoder connection is utilized when an external encoder input is supplied to the system. The 73006056 module is primarily used with a connection of a 50nm linear encoder for focus applications.
