The MDC151-0501001 driver is designed to drive DC brushless motors at currents of up to 100A (peak) and 50V. Using hall sensor feedback, a constant velocity mode can be selected. The driver is protected against over current (cycle-by-cycle or latched), hall sensor error and under voltage. When an error occurs, a fault light notifies the user. If the fault latch is enabled and an error occurs the fault output goes low to notify the user. Included on the driver is an internal potentiometer to control the speed of the motor. An external voltage (0-5VDC) can be used to control the speed as well. The direction of the motor can be preset by the direction control input. Other Inputs to the drive include a run/stop and a motor freewheel input. When using the run/stop input, there are three ramp up/down profiles from standstill to select from. The run/stop input overrides all other inputs into the driver.
