LA-300 Analog Linear Servo Amplifier
Varedan LA 300 series are compact, high voltage, high current linear amplifiers designed to drive brushless and brush motors or voice coils. They are the perfect choice for systems requiring low radiated noise, zero distortion and extremely low drift from the drive electronics. With true class AB linear output stage (as opposed to PWM, pulse width modulation), the amplifiers are extremely quiet and provide very low distortion for smooth motor operation.
The design of these amplifiers includes an on- board highspeed DSP that monitors all key system functions in real time and provides protection for the outputs by limiting output power to a “Safe Operating Area”. An intelligent user interface allows setup and storage of all system parameters via the serial interface. Non-volatile memory provides storage of the parameters during power off conditions. A 7-segment LED display provides a visual indication of system status.
LA 310 provides 3 operation modes, T, S, D, selected via front edge DIP switch. In T mode, the amplifier is configured to drive one 3-phase brushless motor. In S mode, the amplifier is configured as a H-bridge to drive one single-phase motor or a voice coil. In D mode, the amplifier is configured as 3 independent half-bridges to drive up to 3 single phase motor or 3 voice coils.
LA 310 has 4 current loop gain settings, selectable via front edge DIP switch. Customer can utilize this feature to drive 4 different loads or drive one load with 4 different bandwidth settings.
Varedan offers 3 different packages, open-frame, DC stand alone and AC standalone. Open-frame module is an excellent selection for OEM applications. DC standalone module has a full covered enclosure with a cooling fan integrated. AC standalone integrates a 300W linear power supply and 2 cooling fans into the package. User can directly apply 110/240VAC power to the unit.
