The 3540M/MO step motor drivers are
microstepping drives with up to 12,800 steps
per revolution, step phase sequencer with
MOSFET three state switching amplifiers and
optoisolated circuits. Both drives include 5
optically isolated inputs,
and the 3540MO features external speed
control, tach output, and internal pots for
accel/decel rate along with high/low speed
range selection.
Dimensions:
mm (inch)
The 3540M is a step and direction drive,
and includes an automatic feature (switch
selectable) to reduce motor current by
50% when the motor is left at rest for more
than one second. Additionally there is a
switch selectable self-test which rotates the
motor
100 steps/second.
The 3540M0 has an on-board oscillator
which allows the motor speed to be
controlled by an analog voltage or external
joystick. This drive is idea for continuous
motion applications such as mixers and
blenders. Microstepping resolution is
selectable by DIP switch on the 3540M.
