- Page 5 4. POWER SUPPLY SECTION It is important to choose the appropriate power supply to make the driver operate properly Maximum Voltage Input: The internal power supply can operate from 20V to 50V dc, including power input fluctuation and back EMF voltage generated by motor coils during motor shaft deceleration.
- Page 6 5. DRIVER VOLTAGE AND CURRENT SELECTION Selecting Supply Voltage: Higher supply voltage can increase motor torque at higher speeds. However, higher voltage may cause more motor vibration at lower speeds. It may also cause over-voltage protection and even damage the drive. Therefore, it is suggested to choose only sufficiently high supply voltage for intended applications.
- Page 7 7. DRIVER CONNECTION TO MOTOR Series Connection P542 drive can drive any 4, 6 or 8 lead hybrid stepper motors. Series Connection: A series configuration would typically be used in applications where a higher torque at lower speeds is required. Because this configuration has the most inductance, the performance will start to degrade at higher speeds.
