Revision 1.1
Chapter 1Introduction
The 7XX8 Series of Digital Servo Amplifiers are high
performance, DSP (Digital Signal Processor) controlled
amplifiers. They control AC brushless motors with full
sinusoidal commutation. AC models operate directly from
AC mains. DC models operate from DC power sources,
which directly rectify the line. All models have full
isolation between signal and power stages. No power
transformers are required.
Built using surface-mount technology, these amplifiers
offer a full complement of features for AC brushless motor
control. All models use industry standard
±10V analog control signals for torque or velocity
control. A two-signal digital input takes step-motor
command pulses for position control:
In either CW/CCW or PLS/DIR format, or
from quadrature encoder A/B signals.
Digital preset inputs can be used to initiate 16 predefined
velocity, torque or position indexes.
A three phase MOSFET bridge output stage delivers
power in four-quadrants for smooth and efficient
bidirectional acceleration and deceleration of motors.
Windows software is used to configure the various gain
and current limit settings and to customize the amplifiers
for a wide range of loads and applications. Settings are
held in nonvolatile flash memory. Communication with the
7XX8 Series Digital Servo Amplifier User Guide
1-1
amplifier is done through an RS-232 port for easy
interface to most computers. Software settings permit
compensation over a wide range of load inductances to
maximize bandwidth with different motors. Individual peak
and continuous current limits allow high acceleration
without sacrificing protection against continuous
overloads.
All models are protected against output short circuits
(output to output and output to ground) and heatplate
overtemperature. With Reset input open, the amplifier will
latch off until powered-down or the Reset input is toggled.
If reset from such conditions is desired, the Reset input
can be momentarily connected to ground.
A red/green status LED speeds diagnostics when the
amplifier is put into operation.
Features
The Digital Servo Amplifier Model 7XX8 Servo works with
DSP controlled torque, velocity or position modes using
only encoder feedback from the motor. It is
programmable for S-curve and trapezoidal motion files.
You can select up to 16 preset modes using a PLC or
Logic Hi/Lo line.

To minimize noise radiation from the motor and power
cabling, wires should be twisted and shielded. Motor
sensor signals are often routed near the motor phase
winding cables. To minimize coupling of PWM noise,
sensor signal wiring should be multiple-conductorshielded cable. Further more, all cable shields should be
case grounded at both ends for compliance with CE
emissions limits. See Figure(s) 2-1 through 2-4 for
details.

Power supply and motor connections (Figure 2-2) should
be made with wire that has a rating to support the

amplifiers in this series. Additional recommendations: use
wire insulation with a voltage rating of 600V DC and a
temperature range of 105°C.

The power supply should deliver sufficient power P,
to supply the power delivered to the motor, and the
power lost in the amplifier.
In general, the supply voltage V should be larger
than the motors nominal voltage rating for the
absolute maximum voltage rating. Consult the motor
manufacturer for more information.
The current delivered by the supply can be calculated
from the equation I = P / V. Furthermore, the power
supply should be able to handle any current surge that
occurs during power up. The Copley amplifier limits
the current surge to 37 Amps maximum on power-up.
The capacitor used in the bridge rectifier circuit must be
able to keep the voltage ripple, or Vrip, at sufficient
levels and the capability of storing 10 times the energy
regenerated from the load. The capacitor C may be
calculated from this equation:
C= I / (120Hz * Vrip)

To protect the motor, during the prototype phase, it is
the recommendation of Copley Controls Corp. to use
time delayed fusing in line with the motor. To protect
the motor from an unintentional event the current rating
should be no greater than the motors continuous stall
current.

Motor signal connections should be made with wire that
has a rating to support the signal current. AWG 24 wire
will support all motor signals in this series. Additional
recommendations for wire insulation are for a voltage
rating of 300 V DC and a temperature range of 80°C. To
minimize coupling of PWM noise, encoder signal wiring
should be multiple-conductor twisted-pair shielded
cable. Furthermore, all cable shields should be case
grounded at both ends for compliance with CE

Quadrature encoders typically provide three signals
(Figure 2-6): two square waves (phase A and B) that
are 90° apart, and an index pulse, which will typically
occur once per revolution.
There are several ways to configure the encoder
interface. However, differential signals are
recommended for their inherently large CMRR (common
mode noise rejection ratio). For more information about
encoder formats see Chapter 3.
