2.1 DSM S-Series integrated motorand d river
TheDSM S -Series high-torque integrated motor and driver is ideal for designers whowant t he
simplicity of a motor with on-board electronics. The DSM allows thesy stem designer to decide
thebest method of c ontrol. The drive’s integrated electronics eliminates the need to r un the
motorc abling through the machine, reducing the potential for problems due to electrical noise.
TheDSM is asmall, pow erful and inexpensive solution that will reduce sys tem cost, design
andass embly time for a large range of stepping motor applications.
TheDSM family usea N EMA17, NEMA23 or NEMA34 1.8° high torque motor combined with a
microstepping drive, and accept up to 14 resolution settings from 1/2 to 256 mic rosteps per
step.S etup parameters can be changed ‘on-the-fly’ or downloaded and stored in non -volatile
memoryw ith the use of a simple user interface program which is prov ided, eliminating the
needfor ext ernal switches or resistors. The ver satile, compact DSM is available in multiple
configurationstofit varioussystem needs.
Features include:
HIntegratedmic rostepping drive/NEMA high torque motor.
HAvailablein var ious stack lengths from 13 to 47 (model dependent).
H+12to +75 VDC inputvoltage ( +12 to +48 VDC on DSMS17).
HOptically isolated +5 to +24 VDC inputs, sourcing or sinking.
HAutomatic current reduction.
HAutomatic communication configuration.
HReark nob for manual positioning (option M).
HInterfacing by 30 cm (12 in) flying leads (optional 7-pin terminal block on DSMS17/23) .
HGraphical User Interface (GUI) for easy parameter setup.
HExtremely compact.
