Juno Ultra-Efficient Velocity & Torque Control ICs
The Juno® Velocity and Torque Motion ICs deliver impressive power and precise, four-quadrant current control for brushless DC, DC brush, and step motors. Designed for next-generation servo motor applications in liquid pumping or high-speed motor control. The Juno family delivers precise ramp-up and ramp-down, field oriented control, and smooth, quiet motor operation over a wide range of operating conditions. Eliminating the need for homegrown multicomponent solutions, Juno ICs are easy to deploy with preprogrammed motion commands and onboard safety and performance-monitoring intelligence-including overcurrent, over- and under-voltage, overtemperature, current integration limits, and communication monitoring.

MC73110
The MC 73110 Motor Control IC provides high performance digital current loop, velocity loop, and commutation, for brushless DC motors. This intelligent single-axis drive controller operates in internal velocity profile mode, velocity mode with an external velocity command signal, or torque mode with an external torque command signal. The MC73110 can be operated standalone, using pre-programmed flash-stored parameters, or through the serial port using microprocessor-style commands.
MC73110 Developer's Kit
PMD's DK73110 Developer's Kit is a complete, integrated intelligent amplifier that utilizes the MC73110 Motor Control IC and drives a 3-phase brushless motor at up to 10 amps. All features of the MC73110 can be exercised including analog velocity or torque control, commutation, current loop, and profile generation. The DK73110 can be used to prototype your motion hardware, develop your application code, or measure system performance. To create a complete functioning motion system, only a 3-phase brushless motor is required. The kit also includes PMD's Pro-Motion GUI, an interactive WindowsTM-based exerciser and data capture program, and C-Motion, which simplifies the development of motion applications using C++.
