Data Sheet

2 XDC2xxx Motor Controller Datasheet Version 1.3. November 6, 2014
• Closed loop position control with analog or pulse/fre-
quency feedback
• Precise speed and position control when Encoder feed-
back is used
• PID control loop with separate gains for each channel
• Optional Mixed control (sum and difference) for tank-like
steering
• Configurable Data Logging of operating parameters on
RS232 Output for telemetry or analysis
• Built-in Battery Voltage and Temperature sensors
• Optional 12V backup power input for powering safely the
controller if the main motor batteries are discharged
• Power Control wire for turning On or Off the controller
from external microcomputer or switch
• No consumption by output stage when motors stopped
• Regulated 5V output for powering Sensors, Encoders,
RC radio, RF Modem or microcomputer
• Separate Programmable acceleration and deceleration
for each motor
• Separate Programmable maximum forward and reverse
power
• Ultra-efficient 1.5 mOhm ON resistance MOSFETs
• Stall detection and selectable triggered action if Amps is
outside user-selected range
• Short circuit protection
• Overvoltage and Undervoltage protection
• Programmable Watchdog for automatic motor shutdown
in case of command loss
• Overtemperature protection
• Diagnostic LED
• Extruded aluminum, heat sinking enclosure for operation
harsh shock and temperature environment
