Digital Current Loop Significantly Quiets Step Motor Noise By Performance Motion Devices
Conventional step “current chopper” drives result in a large amount of step motor noise, needless motor heating, and consume more current. A digital current loop will result in significantly quieter and lower temperature motor operation which is beneficial in many applications. This article... Read more
Keep Your Step Motor Position with A Closed Loop Motion Control System By Performance Motion Devices
Step motors are a common solution for controlling the position of moving components, but in some cases can be inadequate since the motor position is not necessarily known. Even though step motors are inexpensive when compared to brushless motors, in many critical applications, care has to be... Read more
