Introduction

This manual describes the operational characteristics of the MC2340, MC2320 and MC2310 Motion Processors from PMD. These devices are members of PMD’s second-generation motion processor family, which consists of 14 separate products organized into 5 series. Each of these devices are complete chip-based motion processors.

They provide trajectory generation and related motion control functions. Depending on the type of motor controlled they provide servo loop closure, on-board commutation for brushless motors, and high speed pulse and direction outputs. Together these products provide a software-compatible family of dedicated motion processors that can handle a large variety of system configurations.
