Stepper Motors

The board has 6 stepper motor drivers, with and without feedback, for handling multiple motion control scenarios for your device.

Interconnection Interface

The interconnect interface can be used as consolidated connections for stepper motors with feedback mechanisms and limits, minimizing cable design.

Reset

The reset button is a standard feature on all boards.

Opto-Sensor Input

The board provides a large number of optical sensor inputs, which are typically used for limit switches and general opto-sensors.

FAN Driver

The board provides multiple FAN drivers for controlling up to 4 separate channels.

Brush DC Driver

The board provides a brushed DC motor with multiple control modes.

Brushless DC Driver

The board has motor drivers that can operate a 3 phase BLDC motor with or without the use of feedback sensors.

Encoder Inputs

The board provides connections for several individual encoder inputs, with selectable feedback modes.

Analog Input

Besides the digital inputs, the board also provides multiple digitally controlled analog input channels to interface with a variety of sensors.

Pulsed Width Modulation (PWM) Driver

The board comes with multiple PWM channels for working with a variety of actuators and third-party controllers.

Power In

This is the nominal power connector for the board.

Power Out

The board has provision to supply power out of the board in cases where an external device needs power.

Protection

The board offers three types of protection - Service, Interlock and Safety.

External Communications

The board offers multiple types of external communications, including various serial communication methods such as RS485.

Ethernet

The board has an RJ45 connector for ethernet communications.

Microcontroller

The microcontroller is the brains of the board and comes pre-installed and programmed to be used in your embedded system design.
