I/O Conditioning

Each I/O line of the DS10, LS10 and OS10 series stepper motor drives can be configured to operate with direct logic or negate, and it is also possible to force the input to be always active or always inactive.

For example, the direction can be reversed by software, without the need to act on the wiring, or it is possible to force the enable input to be always active, so as not to have to be wired.

Additional Tips

Rms current and peak current

For the stepper motor drives belonging to the xS10, DS30 and DS5x series the phase current is expressed in Arms, i.e. effective current. Instead, other manufacturers characterize their products indicating the peak current (sometimes also referred to … »read more

Fast optocouplers

The stepper motor drives beloging to the DS10, LS10 and OS10 series are equipped with fast optocouplers which allow to apply step frequencies of more than 300KHz. … »read more

Innovative digital inputs

All the digital inputs present in the stepper motor drives of the xS10, DS30 and DS5x series are optoisolated.

Each optocoupler has an innovative current limiting circuit that allows to supply each input singularly, and independently one from the … »read more

Interrupted phase alarm

The stepper motor drives of the xS10, DS30 and DS5x series implement a special technology able to detect the interrupted phase condition.

This characteristic, hard to find in other drives, is particularly useful when the motor is used in open loop … »read more

Line Driver inputs

All the input digital lines of the stepper motor drives belonging to the xS10, DS30 and DS5x series can be controlled also in differential mode (also known as Line Driver). … »read more
