An US Digital product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Sep 12, 2007

The MD2S-P is a conventional step and direction input stepper motor drive while the MD2S-D is a digital speed control version.

The MD2S is a universal programmable microstepping stepper motor driver capable of driving size 17 to 42 stepper motors.

29 microstep resolutions from 5 to 256 microsteps per step are easily selectable by means of DIP switches.

Motor currents are selectable from 0.5 to 7A per winding in 0.5A increments.

The L-option is a low-current version available with selectable current output from 0.20 to 3.6A per winding in 0.05A increments.

The MD2S is powered by a single supply voltage from +16 to +50V DC.

The MD2S-P is a conventional step and direction input stepper motor drive while the MD2S-D is a digital speed control version.

The MD2S-P conventional step and direction version has a 2MHz maximum step input rate along with a 50% auto zero-speed current reduction option.

The MD2S-D digital speed control version provides simple stop/go speed control with ramp up and down.

The drive has eight selectable slow and high-speed velocity choices along with a selectable fast or slow acceleration.

The drive's velocities and accelerations may also be factory customised to fit a specific application.
