Abstract

For the fast changing motor drive technology in the industry, the release of a new motor control IC, MC73110 from PMD Corporation, was beneficial in developing a digital servo controller without time-consuming control software development. The change of drive configuration requires additional development time and cost, especially in control software modification that depends on specific application. The main purpose of this paper is to describe the details of the application of a new technology to the development of a fully software configurable digital servo amplifier to drive a three-phase PMBDCM (Permanent Magnet Brushless Dc Motor). The paper highlights GUI (Graphical User Interface)-based control software setup for the implementation of the software configurable digital servo amplifier. The MC73110 IC is incorporated into the servo amplifier design, resulting in an easy-to-use software configurable servo amplifier. To validate the software configurable digital controller, a design example to develop a position servo amplifier for electric actuator application is completely explained and some of the test results are discussed.
