DESCRIPTION
Based upon our popular IB462
Half/Full Step Driver, the IB462He
is a low cost, high performance
al ter na tive to larger drives. The
small size of the patented IB462He
makes it ideal for systems where
space is at a premium without sac-
rifi cing performance.
The IB462He operates between
+12 and +48 VDC. This high voltage
allows for greater speeds at higher
torque. Combine this with 2A per
phase of output current and 160
watts of power and you have a low
cost al ter na tive to chipsets, all con-
tained in a package that minimizes
expensive real estate!
The IB462He is our smallest and
lowest priced drive. It will reduce
time to market, increase reliability,
and it comes with a 2 year war-
ranty. The IB462He rep re sents af-
fordable, state-of-the-art technology
for the com pet i tive edge needed in
today’s market.
OPTIONS
The INT-462 is an optional plug-
on in ter face board which can be
used with the IB462He to facilitate
test ing, or in situations where
panel mount ing the IB462He is
pre ferred. The INT-462 is much
more than a sim ple pluggable in-
ter face. It adds a dy nam ic array
of fea tures to the IB462He, typi-
cally found only on larg er and more
expensive drives. Features such as
a +5 VDC switch ing power sup ply,
+5 to +48 VDC opto-iso lat ed inputs
which are in ter nal ly limited to 8mA,
au to mat ic cur rent reduction, over
current and short circuit pro tec tion,
input capacitor, and fault and pow er
LEDs. Wir ing is done through a 15
pin re mov able screw ter mi nal.
The OSC-462H analog speed con-
trol board is an op tion for adding low
cost, intelligent velocity control to
the IB462He driver. The OSC-462H
is powered by a single +12 to +48
VDC power supply, which will also
provide power for the IB462He. The
control board fea tures a digital os-
cillator for accurate velocity con trol
with an output frequency of up to
60 kilohertz. The IB462He driver
plugs easily into a 21 pin re cep ta cle
attached to the OSC-462H. This
device allows for a simple, cost
ef fec tive solution in applications
requiring variable velocity control.

Also available is the H-462H heat
sink, which only adds 2.21 cubic
inches (36.1 cubic cm) to the over-
all foot print of the IB462He.
