Tiny microstepping drive still packs a
punch
The new G201 1/10th step bipolar microstepping drive measures in at only 64x64x22mm and weighs just 100grams, yet can deliver continuous currents of up to 7A per phase whilst dissipating 18W
The new G201, 1/10th Step Bipolar Microstepping Drive measures in at only 64 x 64 x 22 mm and weighs just 100 grams, yet can deliver continuous currents of up to 7 Amps per phase whilst dissipating a meagre 18 Watts An ideal solution for all of those space restricted applications

Stepper drive offers high current in small unit
The new compact PVP192 Bipolar Stepper Motor Drive, manufactured by Alzanti, measures in at only 89 x 76 x 38mm yet can deliver continuous currents of up to 2 Amps per phase.
An ultra smooth 1/10th step PWM current regulation circuit provides very efficient use of input power whilst enabling excellent performance to be achieved from a wide range of hybrid and permanent magnet stepper motors with 4, 6 or 8 leads, and at supply voltages from 24 to 80Vdc.
A standard 200 step per rev motor will now be controllable at 2000 steps per rev, and mid-band stabilisation is incorporated which greatly improves the usable speed range of the motor.
The modules pulse and direction inputs are opto isolated for use with 'sinking' (NPN) drivers, thereby making easy and direct interface possible to many PC's, PLC's and other types of control equipment.
Features include: High speed pulse input -- up to 200kHz; Pre-setable motor output current from 1 to 7 Amps (low current version, 0.15 to 1 Amp, also available) and an output stage disable function.
To complete the drive package Alzanti also provide a range of 'high torque' rare earth magnet Stepper Motors, conventional magnet Stepper Motors, Intelligent Motion Controllers, Power Supplies and other motion control accessories.
