  • Page 11: Features And Benefits

    With this 80V series of the IB family, IMS has preserved pin compatibility with the 40V series to provide equipment manufacturer’s the ability to easily upgrade their systems if more power is needed. In addition, the small package makes them ideal for PC board mounting. They may also be frame or chassis mounted and will accept 0.200/0.196 center connectors or plug type terminal strips such as the option TS-6 terminals sold by IMS.

    The peak current for both windings is programmed by the current adjust input. The output stage consists of dual full bridge drivers. The IB Series drives can be disabled by a logic HIGH signal on the enable input. Ultra fast recovery fly-back rectifiers are used to improve efficiency and help reduce noise.

    The output voltage of an unregulated power supply will vary with the AC input applied. It is recommended that an AC line filter be used to prevent damage to the IB series drive due to a lightning strike or power surge. WARNING! Verify that the power supply wiring is correct prior to power application.

  • Page 21 S i z i n g a M o t o r f o r Yo u r S y s t e m The IB series drivers are bipolar drivers which work equally well with both bipolar and unipolar motors (i.e. 8 and 4 lead motors, and 6 lead center tapped motors).

  • Page 23: Motor Wiring

    M o t o r W i r i n g As with the power supply wiring, motor wiring should be run separately from logic wiring to minimize noise coupled onto the logic signals. Motor cabling exceeding 1 foot in length should be shielded twisted pairs to reduce the transmission of EMI (ElectroMagnetic Interference) which can lead to rough motor operation and poor system performance overall.
  • Page 24: Figure 1.4.2 8 Lead Motor Series Connection

    8 L e a d M o t o r s 8 lead motors offer a high degree of flexibility to the system designer in that they may be connected in series or parallel, thus satisfying a wide range of applications. S e r i e s C o n n e c t i o n A series motor configuration would typically be used in applications where a higher torque at low speeds is needed.
  • Page 25: Figure 1.4.4 6 Lead Motor Half Coil Connection

    6 L e a d M o t o r s Like 8 lead stepping motors, 6 lead motors have two configurations available for high speed or high torque operation. The higher speed configuration, or half coil, is so described because it uses one half of the motor’s inductor windings.

  • Page 32: Controlling The Output Current

    C o n t r o l l i n g t h e O u t p u t C u r r e n t The IB series drivers are internally configured to run at full current. In order to lower the output current a resistor must be placed between pin 6 (Current Adjust) and pin 7 (Power Ground).
  • Page 33: Figure 1.5.7 Switching Phase Currents

    It is possible to switch the current adjust resistor value using the circuit examples provided in this section. These circuits may be used to switch from one output current setting to another, or to reduce the current in the motor windings when the motor is in a locked position. Use of this will reduce motor and drive heating considerably.
