Microcontrollers in Power Electronics

This white paper explores the power supply advantages of digital microcontrollers, as well as how digital power supplies can be used to manage entire systems.

Variable Frequency Drive gives hoist precise speed control.

Under the Cover Variable Frequency Drive is used on 3-phase 460/3 or 230/3 Lodestar hoists for precise positioning and speed control. It utilizes standard AC squirrel cage induction motor. Electronic reversing and multi-speed operation eliminates need for magnetic contactors. Electrodynamic braking system extends disc life of motor brake. Drive features 2-step infinitely variable pushbutton...

I/O Module reduces panel space requirements.

SixTRAKÃ-® Model ST-DI-024-32D double-density, 32-channel, discreet input module can be DIN rail or direct panel mounted and has hot-swap capability. It provides local I/O expansion for controllers, remote terminal units, or I/O gateways. All module inputs return to common ground and isolation protects system from wiring faults. Module is vibration-resistant, operates in temperatures from -40...
