Developer’s Kits for
SQUIGGLE
®
RV Micro Motor,
NSD-2101 Driver and NSE-5310 Position Sensor
Evaluate the world’s smallest
linear motor
in an integrated motion system
This New Scale developer’s kit allows engineers to evaluate a tiny, closed
loop motion system reference design with integrated SQUIGGLE RV
(reduced voltage) micro motor, NSD-2101 piezo motor driver and NSE-5310
position sensor. The kits demonstrate the performance of these tiny
components – the smallest of their kind – in an integrated motion system.
Define system specifications for custom development
This developer’s kit is designed to help engineers define system
specifications for subsequent development of custom micro motion modules
with New Scale Technologies.
Integrated components
SQL-RV-1.8-6-12 SQUIGGLE
®
RV micro motor. The world’s smallest
linear motor at 2.8 x 2.8 x 6 mm features 6 mm travel, 30 gram force
stall force and 0.5 µm resolution.
NSD-2101 motor driver. The drive IC generates ultrasonic signals to
drive the SQUIGGLE motor and accepts feedback from the position
sensor. It is integrated into the MC-3300-RV motor controller, which
provides the USB interface to a PC.
NSD-5310 position sensor (closed-loop kits only). Magnetic sensor
array with on-chip digital encoding has 0.5 µm resolution with a size as
small as 3.9 x 2.5 mm. The kit includes an 11mm magnet.
Mechanical reference design. The SQUIGGLE RV motor (and NSE-
5310 sensor in closed-loop kits) is integrated into a slide assembly
demonstrating proper mounting, loading and alignment.
Also included is New Scale Pathway™ Software for Windows with USB
connector, intuitive user interface and ActiveX command library that enable
easy evaluation of the motor and position sensor. You can build custom
programs using the intuitive scripting interface, and port the scripts and
ActiveX commands to your embedded hardware.
FEATURES
Easy push-button operation demonstrates
forward and reverse motion
Intuitive PC software facilitates detailed
evaluation and system requirements definition
Powered by two 3 V batteries
