DESCRIPTION

The GS-DC200 series is a family of single Eurocard

boards that contain all the logic necessary to oper-

ate a stepper motor, including the instructions de-

coding, the step timing generation, the storage of

the program to be executed. The motor interface

can deliver phase current up to 2.5A.

The boards can be used as a stand alone complete

motion control system or they can be driven by a

central host computer.

The GS-DC200 family is built around the GS-C200,

GS-C200S, GS-D200, GS-D200S modules, (see

the relevant data sheet) and it retains all the fea-

tures of these modules.
