MD882 Microstepping Driver

1. Introduction

The MD882 is a high performance microstepping driver using pure-sinusoidal current control

technology. It is particularly suitable for the applications desired with extremely low noise and

low heating, compared with microstepping drivers which apply pseudo-sinusoidal current control

technology. Because pseudo-sinusoidal current control technology may make the output current to

be a distorted sine wave or generates larger current ripple, and both of them may cause the motor

working in a higher noise, bigger vibration and higher temperature condition. If the motor works in

that condition for a long time, that may decrease motor torque, accelerate motor aging and short

motor’s operating life. However the pseudo-sine precise current control technology applied

by the MD882 can solve above problems very well and therefore the M882 can make

stepping motors offer servo-like performances.
