IDCA-10

The IDCA-10 from Motor Control Technologies, LLC is an integrated servo control system designed specifically for DC brushed motors. The IDCA-10 can source up to 5A at 28 VDC, and is fully compatible with the LabJack U12, U3, U6, and UE9. The IDCA-10 incorporates a dedicated microcontroller for implementing closed loop speed and position control.

IDCA-10 Features:

• Built-in PID control loops
• Serial bus communications (SPI or I2C/SMBus)
• Optional analog input for controlling motor speed and position
• Quadrature encoder inputs
• Limit switch inputs
• Four-quadrant drive operation
• PWM variable speed drive (1 kHz to 10 kHz)
• +8 to +28VDC supply voltage
• +5A maximum continuous motor current
• Real-time motor current monitoring
• 240 milliohm bridge resistance
• +5VDC, 250mA output for external electronics
• Integrated anodized aluminum heat sink and enclosure
• Compact size (2.625in. x 2.625in x 0.75in.)
