Description
The DC Motor Phidget allows you to control a single DC motor (up to 25 A) or DC linear actuator. It uses high-frequency pulse-width modulation to achieve smooth operation. This Phidget connects to your computer through a VINT Hub.
Features:
- Control velocity and acceleration – Forward and reverse
- Set a specific target position (requires an encoder)
- Monitor electrical current – Detect motor stalling
- Attach potentiometers and other ratiometric sensors – Incorporate position feedback without needing a separate input board
- Encoder input – Read in the quadrature signal from an encoder attached to the shaft of your motor. This lets you make a closed-loop position controller.
- Monitor Temperature – Your program can react to changes in controller temperature.
- Current Control – Limit the motor torque
- Isolation – The VINT port on this device is isolated, improving reliability and eliminating ground loops
- Polarity Protection – The device will not turn on and will not be damaged if the power supply is connected backward
- Overcurrent protection – On-board fuse to protect the controller in an over-current event
- Failsafe Protection – Set the device to turn off automatically if your program becomes unresponsive
