Decentralized multi-axis motor control

Decentralized multi-axis servo drive architecture using Sitara processors and C2000 real-time microcontrollers

00:02:24|29 Jan 2021

Move your real-time control closer to the action with our decentralized multi-axis servo drive architecture.

Benefits of a decentralized servo drive architecture:

  • More intelligent synchronized control
  • Higher precision servo control
  • Reduced footprint and machine wiring across the factory floor 

Demonstration hardware:

  • Sitara™ AM64x processors: Outer control loops with CiA402 drive profile run on a Sitara™ AM64x processor using EtherCAT® communication from a PC
  • Adapter boards: Real-time, low pin-count, robust communication up to 200 Mbps over Fast Serial Interface adapter boards
  • C2000™ real-time controllers: Inner current loops run on F2800x LaunchPad™ development kits
  • BoosterPack™ development kits: GaN FETs on three-phase inverter BoosterPack™ development kits
