Motion Processor

Four-axis motion control chip, designed for controlling stepper and digital servomotors, allows the user to off-load intensive motion control functions from a host processor. The PCL6143 is driven by a microprocessor using an 8 or 16-bit parallel bus. Features include output speeds to 15 Mpps, linear interpolation, S-curve acceleration/deceleration control, comparators, encoder inputs, and more. Nippon Pulse America, Inc.
