Claim Text:
1. A control apparatus for a linear motion stage, comprising: a first filter adapted to filter a frequency of a signal received from a linear encoder of the linear motion stage; an adder adapted to add an input signal representing a command position and a negative of an output signal of the first filter; a control unit adapted to generate a control signal to control the linear motion stage based on an output signal of the adder; and a second filter adapted to filter a frequency of the control signal; wherein input terminals of the first filter and the second filter include a correction table for storing cut-off frequencies and damping rates measured according to driven positions of the linear motion stage, the first filter and the second filter adapted to apply the correction table to determine a cut-off frequency of the first filter and the second filter and the damping rates according to the driven positions of the linear motion stage; and wherein if the linear motion stage is placed between two adjacent ones of the driven positions, the cut-off frequency of each of the first filter and the second filter and the damping rate are obtained by an interpolation between the cut-off frequency and damping rate of one of the adjacent driven positions and the cut-off frequency and damping rate of the other of the adjacent driven positions.
