ADLINK Launches Integrated 4-Axis PCI Express® Pulse Motion Control Card

     ADLINK, the world's leading edge computing solution provider, has launched the AMP-104C and AMP-304C series pulse motion control cards based on the PCI Express interface. This series of control cards features high performance and excellent accuracy and is designed to meet the requirements of motion control equipment in many high-growth electronic manufacturing fields including the semiconductor, AOI and LED industries.

     ADLINK AMP-104C is an entry-level control card that can reliably and accurately perform basic point-to-point (P2P) motion control, and provides additional encoder input and position latch, when applied to stepper motors, It can provide more precise positioning and achieve high added value at an affordable price.

     ADLINK AMP-304C is an advanced motion control card that provides superior speed and precision for more complex automation applications. The AMP-304C is equipped with a dedicated DIN-304C terminal block to help simplify cable distribution and, when double snapped, not only improves overall performance, but also minimizes overall cost.

     Both AMP motion control cards feature a two-in-one design of motion control and I/O functions. Through the integration of hardware and software, all port functions are combined into a single device, making it easier to manage, lower overall cost, and unaffected I/O capabilities. Customers can decide whether they need to connect I/O devices, or perform different motion operations through I/O connectors.

     ADLINK's AMP-304C provides 16-channel output, which implements an exclusive position comparison function. Through the "comparison point multiplexing" mode, it can simplify the setup of repeatable motion applications, thereby saving API configuration time. The AMP-304C also supports "Quick Response API" and "Command Preload Mode", which can reduce the execution time between the motion control card and the CPU, thereby increasing throughput and further improving productivity per hour (UPH). All of these advanced AMP-304C features can be set up and managed through ADLINK's APS SDK. The APS SDK provides a single code base and unified user interface that provides over 400 motion control functions for no-code test developers. With ADLINK's SDK, motion control systems can be easily upgraded, centrally managed, and rapidly deployed.
