launches dedicated EtherCAT motion controller IC
The TMC8670 is a
field-oriented control (FOC) servo controller with a CANopen over EtherCAT®
protocol stack, handling real-time critical tasks faster than any
software-based solution.
Hamburg, 13 Aug. 2018 - TRINAMIC Motion Control GmbH & Co. KG combines
the best of both worlds in the TMC8670. It integrates all algorithms for a
high-end, fast field-oriented control and high-performance real-time fieldbus
interface. Suitable for 3-phase BLDC and BLAC motors as well as 2-phase stepper
motors, the TMC8670 embodies decades of experience with motor control.
“We see EtherCAT
gaining relevance in the embedded automation domain, where tight space
constraints drive miniaturization,” explains Michael Randt, Founder and CEO of Trinamic. “This component is designed with precise and
dynamic robot drives in mind, where controllers and servo drives are distributed
in the joints. Since we’ve built the drive electronics for KUKAs youBot several
years ago, more and more small, decentralized robot designs appear on the
market demanding space saving and performant solutions.”
A single axis embedded servo controller for robotics, manufacturing, and
automation, the TMC8670 is designed for an operating voltage of 1.2V… 3.3V. Having
an SPI-ADC interface, position interpolators, and different position sensor
interfaces, the TMC8670 is a high-performance building block that enables a
real-time servo controller with only a couple components. it is prepared for
typical encoders used in robotics and industrial automation as well as embedded
motion control systems.
With a PWM engine including space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM),
the IC is suitable for demanding, low inductance motors and highest dynamic
positioning tasks. With all the control loops implemented in dedicated
hardware, the TMC8670 executes the real-time critical tasks faster than any software-based
solution and reduces the development time to a minimum.
The TMC8670-BI comes
in a FCSG325 (11x11) package. The component and the evaluation board
TMC8670-EVAL are available for shipment from September 2018. The device meets
the -40°C to 125°C automotive grade temperature specification.
