Westford, MA: Performance Motion Devices, Inc. (PMD) today announced the availability of Juno® Velocity Control ICs, new members of PMD's Juno Motion IC family providing advanced velocity control of 3-phase Brushless DC and DC Brush motors. Juno Velocity Control ICs represent a price to performance breakthrough with features such as PI (proportional, integral) velocity loop control, programmable velocity estimation, dual biquad filtering, shunt regulation, deadband filtering, FOC (Field Oriented Control), and more, yet being offered for $23 in quantity.
"To satisfy the call for greater efficiency, smoother motion, and less heat generation, older BLDC motor control approaches are giving way to sophisticated algorithm-based techniques. Our design philosophy for the Juno IC family was to bring a new generation of intelligent capabilities to today's spindle, pump, vehicle, and centrifuge control applications. The response has been incredible, and it shows that dedicated ICs executing advanced algorithms is the path forward for next generation motor control" states Chuck Lewin, Founder and CEO of PMD.
All Juno Velocity Control ICs are available immediately and are priced from $23 depending on motor type controlled and quantity. Juno Developer Kits start at $195. For more information on Juno Velocity and Torque ICs, visit pmdcorp.com/juno.
