Abstract:
A motor control module based on a CAN (Controller Area Network) communication network comprising:an essential DSP/CAN module comprising a dedicated motor control DSP (Digital Signal Processor) with a built-in CAN control module; a program RAM where a program for motor control is stored and a data RAM where data for motor control is stored; a CAN driver that connects the CAN with said dedicated motor control DSP via RS232C communication network; a Medium Access Control (MAC) ID selection switch that designates a binary number node address on the network; and a couple of first connectors; a motor driving module comprising a digital signal transducer that transforms digital input/output signals; a couple of second connectors that connect to the couple of first connectors; a power source transducer which is connectible to said essential DSP/CAN module through the couple of second connectors and transforms a 24V main power source into a plurality of 5V power sources provided for one of communication, motor operation and processor operation, respectively; a driving output which outputs power in connection with a motor and a power amplifier to be controlled; and an encoder input that inputs phase signals from an encoder which is connected to the motor.
