DBP - Rev 6/93

Ip - Iop

Tp = 2.2ln ----------

Ip - Ic

Iop - Actual operating current before the peak demand.

The result of this filter is that the maximum peak can last for a maximum of

2 seconds. A lower peak can last longer.

Example: A motor is driven by an DBPF-10/135 amplifier at constant speed and

constant current of 5A. What is the maximum possible duration of a 20A peak ?

20 - 5

Tp = 2.2ln -------- = 0.892 seconds

4.4 Digital position and speed control

The DCB accepts motion commands via an RS232 or RS485 communication line and

receives position feedback in an incremental encoder format either from an

encoder or from the resolver/digital circuit. The DCB derives the closed-loop

position error by comparing the command position and the feedback position. The

error is processed by a digital filter to yield with an analog motor command.

The analog +5 volt range motor command is then amplified by the power

amplifier.

Following is a summary of all the operating modes of the DCB and a detailed

discussion of each of them.
