AMIS-3062X

The AMIS-3062X family is ideally suited for small positioning applications. Target markets include: automotive (headlamp alignment, idle control, cruise), industrial equipment (lighting, fluid control, labeling, process, XYZ tables) and building automation (HVAC, surveillance, satellite dish positioning). Suitable applications typically have multiple axes or require mechatronic solutions with the driver chip mounted directly on the motor.

The high abstraction level of the products' command set reduces the load of the processor on the master side. Scaling of the application towards number of axes is straight-forward: hardware - and software designs are extended in a modular way, without severely effecting the demands on the master microcontroller. The bus structure simplifies PCB track-layout and/or wiring architectures.

Microstepping operation removes the design trade-off between minimal operation speed and avoiding the risk of noise and step-loss due to resonance phenomena. The stall-detection feature (optional) offers silent, yet accurate position-calibrations during the referencing run and allows semi-closed loop operation when approaching the mechanical end-stops.

All these benefits result in reduced system-cost and time-to-market and improved technical performance.
