EPOS P 24/5 Position Controller: Fully programmable, compact standalone motion control

The EPOS P 24/5 is a programmable digital motion controller capable of position, velocity, and current mode.  After initial programming, the EPOS P 24/5 may be operated as a stand-alone position controller, or used to control other non-programmable EPOS units, resulting in a cost-effective multi-axis control system.  The small package size design is ideal for controlling small brush or brushless motors.  Requiring a supply voltage of 11-24 V DC, the controller is capable of 5 A max continuous current and 10 A peak current.  Efficiency is up to 90%.  The 50 kHz switching frequency and built-in choke insures compatibility with most low inductance motors, while the sinusoidal commutation for brushless motors insures minimal torque ripple and low noise.  Maximum motor speed is 25,000 rpm for 2-pole motors.  A maximum encoder input frequency of 1 MHz, six digital inputs, four digital outputs, and two analog inputs allows for maximum flexibility.
