Introducing
the M1 motor controller from NCD. The first low-cost,
high-power Hexfet DC motor driver capable of commanding speed
and direction of a DC motor from an RS-232 data source.
Using Pulse Width Modulation (PWM), up to 64 different motor
speeds may be selected for forward and reverse operation.
Hexfet technology ensures solid-state reliability, small
footprint, and very low heat dissipation. Other features
include logic lockout, software braking, and 1200 or 9600 baud
operation.
Based on the NCD-110, this
device can be chained with up to 15 other NCD devices using
the NCD-110 architecture. Network the M1 on
a single serial port with our 8-Relay
controller, AD8
A/D converter, and much more.
The RSB
booster may be required when driving several NCD products from
a serial port. The M1 is
capable of driving a single high-power DC motor rated at 4
amps continuous current, 9-12 volts DC.
Notes:
Speed fluctuations will occur in proportion to the load placed
on the motor. If this product is to be used for robotics,
speed adjustments will be required based on terrain traveled
and battery life. These adjustments can easily be handled in
software. When driving high-power loads, locate controller as
close to the motor as possible.
