January 13, 2002 by Jeff Shepard

Oriental Motor USA Corp. (Torrance, CA) announced that it is now offering the CSK Series with a size 34 (3.35insq), two-phase, hybrid stepping motor and compact board level driver. The CSK Series provides both high speed and high torque capability in a single motor-driver package.

The holding torque values vary from 305oz-in (2.2Nm) for the shortest CSK296-ATA, to 916oz-in (6.6Nm) for the longest CSK2913-ATA stepping motors. The compact board level driver packages produce drive currents of 4.0A and 4.5A per phase (unipolar configuration at 24.0Vdc). A custom ASIC, in combination with surface-mount technology and new generation FETs, delivers a compact size of 3.94in x 2.76in x 1.42in (100mm x 70mm x 36mm).

The CSK driver incorporates an excitation timing function to assist the customer in detecting the mechanical home position of the stepping motor. The driver also features an automatic current cutback function. A step angle select switch allows the customer to select full-step (1.8 degrees) or half-step (0.9 degree) operation.
