Miniature Analog Servo Amplifier for DC brush and trapezoidal brushless motors
Ultra-light current mode Analog servo amplifier for trapezoidal commutation
The Castanet is a series of ultra-light current mode servo amplifiers for
DC brush and trapezoidal brushless motors. Weighing only .76 oz (21.5 g), the Castanet can support up
to 3.3 amps. This high power density servo amplifier can deliver up to 480W of peak power or 240W of continuous power.
The servo amplifier offers significant operating features including excellent output linearity and
zero dead band performance. The Castanet is a PCB mounted device which enables efficient and cost
saving implementation.
