Renesas Electronics, a premier supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, today announced the availability of a new reference solution focused on high-performance, real-time motion control applications equipped with the Renesas RZ/T1 microprocessor (MPU). Renesas’ RZ/T1 motion control solution kit delivers a complete hardware/software solution to help simplify embedded development for industrial servo drives and controllers, industrial robotic systems, factory equipment, and other machine tools that require high speed, responsiveness, and excellent real-time performance.
The RZ/T1 motion control solution kit is a complete hardware/software solution for the RZ/T1 MPU, which delivers class-leading processing power and real-time architecture to run tighter control loops, network connectivity to support deterministic communication, and high-speed encoder interface – effectively serving as connected servo solution on a single chip. The new kit includes an RZ/T1 CPU card, and a dual channel 3-phase inverter to support dual channel servo motor control with current and position feedback. The kit also supports incremental and absolute encoder over EnDat, BiSS® or A-format™ protocols. All this reduces system manufacturers’ bill of materials (BOM) costs and using the solution kit, system manufacturers can activate a servo motor and begin their evaluation processes in just about 30 minutes after they unpack the solution kit.
