Introduction
The cPCI-8168 is an 8 axes motion control cards based on CompactPCI bus. The CompactPCI interface provides plug-and-play feature that is the key to easy maintenance. The maximum number of cards in one system is 6 cards with capability of controlling 48 motors. The cPCI-8168 can generate high frequency pulse train. The frequency of the pulse train controls the motor speed; the number of pulse controls the motor position. The differential input/output signals reduce noise interference. The command output options, including DIR/OUT mode and CW/CCW mode, provide an easy access to various stepper or servo motor drivers. The motion control ASIC performs versatile trajectory planning ability. The acceleration and deceleration time are programmable. The S-curve helps to avoid mechanism vibration. The hardware linear interpolation between two axes is powerful to reduce software computation effort.
