  ECA-11X 8 Axis
25 MHz DSP Motion Controller





ARC Electronics ECA-11X 8 Axis 25 MHz DSP Motion Controller is designed for rugged industrial OEM requirements.

The ECA-11X can directly interface into:
  • 8 Channels of Digital RS-422 Interface with Linear Displacement Transducers Inputs (Temposonics LPS Wands or Temposonics TPII wands) or Fast Encoders.
  • 8 Channels of 13 Bit Analog Output +/- 60 mA Direct Servo Drive or +/- 5 VDC Proportional voltage output drive.
  • 8 Channels of Ultrasonic Non-Contact measurement from ECA-28827 Card.

The ECA-11X-25 MHz DSP Standard Features:
  • Up to 250us PID closed loop control for all 8 channels and 103 I/O.
  • All CMOS design w/ battery backed SRAM & Real-time clock.
  • Up to 103 digital I/O with up to 64 optically isolated I/O.
  • Networkable with RS-422 / RS-485.
  • 6 buffered rotary encoder channel inputs.
  • Custom Programming for OEM Control Applications.
  • Keyboard Customizable for OEMs.
Standard Products in the ECA-11X-25 MHz DSP Family:

  • ECA-11XAT6005 Family has a 16 Bit Micro with a DSP Micro Controller that has a 36-bit accumulator for error free math.
  • ECA-110AT6005: 8 channels of 13 bit current mode outputs +/- 0.06 Amps.
  • ECA-111AT6005: 8 channels of 13-bit voltage mode output +/- 5VDC.
