LDH-S2

The LDH-S2 is a low power brushed linear servo amplifier in a 3E Edge Mount format. It is ideally suited to "stand alone" torque or velocity control applications or for position/velocity/acceleration control if used with a motion controller and position feedback device. When configured for torque control, the amplifier operates as a voltage controlled current source. When configured for velocity control, the amplifier operates as a voltage controlled voltage source. If configured for velocity control, the amplifier can be further configured to accept a tachometer feedback signal for improved motor response, low speed smoothness and velocity accuracy.

The LDH-S2 has simple potentiometer adjustments for Signal Gain, Tachometer Gain, System Response and Balance. The unit includes an Amp Enable input and Enable Indicator LED. Until the amplifier is enabled, the command input is essentially zeroed and the output transistors disabled. Look to the LDH-S3 for added RMS fault protection. The LDH-S2 has numerous advantages over PWM type amplifiers including minimum motor heating, increased brush life, high bandwidth, and the ability to drive zero inductance loads.
