Maximum Output Current: 1.2A rms (continuous); 3.6A rms (peak, 1-second duration) – ideal for driving ultra-small servo motors (0.05–0.2kW) in precision micro-motion systems. Power Consumption: ≤120VA (no-load); ≤400VA (full-load, dependent on motor efficiency). Control Power Supply: 24V DC ±10% (0.5A typical), powered via external industrial power supply or optional internal auxiliary power module. Control Performance Control Modes: Position Control (P/PI + Velocity Feedforward), Speed Control (PI + Feedforward), Torque Control (P/PI), Profile Position Mode (Trapezoidal/S-Curve Acceleration/Deceleration), and Electronic Gear Ratio Adjustment. Positioning Resolution: Up to 524,288 pulses/rev (19-bit absolute encoder compatible) / 100,000 pulses/rev (incremental encoder), enabling sub-micron precision (≤0.05μm for linear applications with 0.5mm-lead ball screws) for high-accuracy micro-processing tasks. Dynamic Response: Speed loop bandwidth ≥220Hz; Position loop bandwidth ≥90Hz – ensuring rapid settling time (≤6ms) and minimal overshoot (<5%) for high-cycle micro-motion sequences (e.g., micro-assembly, precision feeding of tiny components). Vibration Suppression: Built-in single-band notch filter and low-resonance control algorithm – effectively reducing mechanical vibration in ultra-lightweight systems (e.g., micro-robotic arms, mini linear stages) and eliminating resonance-induced positioning errors. Low-Speed Stability: Enhanced current ripple suppression and cogging compensation algorithm to ensure smooth operation at ultra-low speeds (≥0.05rpm), critical for precision micro-adjustment tasks (e.g., micro-engraving, fine positioning of small parts). Feedback & Communication Feedback Interface: Supports incremental encoders (A/B/Z phases, differential output, up to 250kHz) and absolute encoders (BiSS C, Delta’s proprietary encoder), enabling flexible compatibility with Delta ASD-A series ultra-small servo motors and third-party micro-servo motors. Communication Protocols: Modbus RTU (RS-485), CANopen, and Pulse/Direction input (for standalone operation) – seamless integration with small PLCs, microcontrollers, and industrial PCs for micro-automation systems.
