Description
The PCI-7330 is a Stepper Motion Controller designed for precision motion control applications. It falls under the category of Motion Control HW & SW, with a comprehensive part number of 186307G-03L, and alternative part numbers including 778924-02 and 778417-01. This device is meticulously engineered to fit into a PCI form factor, making it compatible with a wide range of desktop systems.
One of the key features of the PCI-7330 is its capability to control up to 4 coordinated or independent axes, providing flexibility for various application requirements. The input resolution is remarkably precise at 12 bits, featuring 8 single-ended multiplexed inputs. In terms of outputs, the controller offers 4 outputs, 4 digital I/O ports (8-bit), and 2 PWM outputs, with the PWM outputs operating at a frequency of 50 kHz and a resolution of 8 bits.
At the heart of the PCI-7330 lies its robust dual-processor architecture, which includes a 32-bit CPU, custom FPGAs, and DSPs. This architecture ensures efficient and reliable processing for demanding applications. The device utilizes a FIFO (first-in, first-out) bus interface, optimizing data handling and throughput.
Moreover, the PCI-7330 supports both open-loop and closed-loop modes of operation, with the latter providing velocity and position feedback for enhanced precision. Feedback inputs include encoder feedback, home switch input, and end-of-travel limit, ensuring comprehensive monitoring and control capabilities. Additionally, the controller is equipped with 4 analog inputs and one digital I/O, further expanding its versatility in various motion control scenarios.
