Application Information
The standard single-width 32 bit PMC module TPMC118 is designed for motion control applications offering six independent channels. Each channel consists of a TTL / RS422 compatible encoder interface, one digital 24V input and one +/-10V analog output.
The position feedback for each of the six channels is provided by an encoder interface and a 32 bit up/down counter with preload and latch register. The input level of the encoder signals can be TTL or RS422. All six encoder interfaces are isolated from the local controller unit by high speed optocouplers. An on board DC/DC converter supplies the isolated part. The encoder signals pass a digital filter for noise suppression before they are fed to the counters and reference logic. The counters are programmable for single, double and quadruple analysis of the encoder signals. The maximum frequency of the encoder inputs is 2 MHz.
