DSP motion controller. (In Gear).Who: Delta Tau Data Systems Inc. (Chatsworth, CA) What: PMAC PMAC Purchasing Management Association of Canada PMAC Pharmaceutical Manufacturers Association of Canada PMAC Performance Modeling and Characterization PMAC Permanent-Magnet Alternating Current (electric motor) 2-PC/104 small-format motion controllers Why you should care: The PMAC2-PC/104 uses integration to achieve a small form factor. The main board has only 3 main components-CPU with embedded RAM, servo ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit) Pronounced "a-sick." A chip that is custom designed for a specific application rather than a general-purpose chip such as a microprocessor. , and flash memory backup. The controller is also billed as the first to use Digital Signal Processor A digital signal processor (DSP) is a specialized microprocessor designed specifically for digital signal processing, generally in real-time computing. Characteristics of typical Digital Signal Processors
Pertinent Data: The PMAC2-PC/104 supports four channels of servo/stepper interface, an RS-232 serial communications port, and an optional bus communications port. Its expansion board is capable of eight servo interface channels, and has an optional added digital I/O. More Info: Enter 4. |
