• Operates from +12 to 75 VDC
• Selectable run and hold currents from 0 to 5.0 Amps Peak
• Step resolutions from full step to 256x and from 5x to 250x
• Four selectable damping modes for smooth motion
• Uses the new LinDriver GUI software to set parameters
• Pole Damping™ Technology
Pole Damping™ Technology (PDT) enhances step motor performance by dampening each full step in order to create a more accurate and smooth motion profile. Microstepping the step motor will optimize Pole Damping™ Technology. PDT outputs the correct amount of run and hold currents to the motor. Thus, it will overcome the step motor’s natural tendency to want to forcefully pull towards the full step ON position.
Currently, the Silverpak 23D integrated motor + drive and the R325 Microstepping Driver contain Pole Damping Technology.
Each Silverpak unit comes with the following cables:
The designer's kit (sold separately) enables first time users to connect to the R525 via PC to program settings such as run and hold currents, microstepping, damping modes, and more.

GUI Software: The GUI interface allows users to set step resolution, run and hold current, damping modes, to detect step pulses on rising or falling edge, to begin the motor running CW or CCW when powered on, to disable the unit upon a high or low signal.
Motor Front Shaft Extension Length

Motor Shaft Diameter
Standard shaft diameter is 0.25”.
Overall Body Length
Motor body length is available in various lengths (Dimension A):
DOP-5718X-XX (2.65”)

Function
Description
1
PWR +ve
Motor Supply Voltage. +12 to 75 VDC
2
Ground
Power Supply Ground
3
Enable
Enable/Disable
4
Direction
Direction input. Default connection will rotate CCW. If this input is low, rotation will be CW. You can swap this by using the GUI interface and clicking the button “Forward Rotation/Reverse Rotation”. (Command DR)
5
Step
Step pulse input. The step clock input will receive a clock pulse input (TTL squarewave, 0 to 5VDC), where one pulse will move the motor one step.
6
Internal 5V out
5VDC output. Used to power Pin 7, the opto reference, if users do not want to use an external 5VDC supply. By using this to power the optos, the device is no longer optically isolated.
7
Opto reference *
5 VDC is required to power the optocoupler reference. This device is for sinking operation with a max input current of 15mAmps.
OPERATES FROM +12 to 75 VDC
SELECTABLE PHASE CURRENTS FROM 0.0 TO 5.0 Amps Peak in 0.05 Amps increments
