Description
The 2.6 Million High Resolution Twin Motor Kit includes a main motor board, placed upon a controller board, and free PCBMotor software for speedy integration and application prototyping.
The High Resolution Twin Motor Kit board is connected to a PC and powered by a standard USB cable. It communicates through a simple protocol that allows custom-made software to quickly and easily access and control both ultrasonic motors.
The standard configuration consists of a main motor board with two 25 mm PCBMotors with digital 200/400/800 digital encoders, and a high resolution twin motor controller.
Output from the motors is achievable by using either the standard 4 mm axel, accessible by the bottom of the main board, or through a direct connection to the top of the rotor using the screws provided.
* Update: Now with 800 Steps/Revolution
Now an even higher resolution is possible with the High Resolution Twin Motor kit. By using both channels in the Avago position sensor, a resolution of 800 steps/revolution can be obtained.
The source code has also been modified to utilize the new 800-step resolution feature and is included with the Twin Motor can be downloaded online.
