Want to start building a UHU Controller

[simmo993]

Hello,


For almost 2 years I'm trying to start building a new CNC machine.
When searching the internet I came accross the UHU controller.
Last year I ordered the Controller and Crytals with Uli Huber.
And with the last PCB action on the german Message board Peters' CNC ecke
I ordered 6 PCB's (the old layout 20/10/2005).
Now I want to order the parts for putting the UHU board's together.
I found so many threads on the net CNCzone and CNC ecke about the controller, that it's almost impossible for a newbie to filter all that info.
Now is my question. Does someone have single and clear parts list for ordering all the elctronic parts. I know that one can find such a list on
http://people.freenet.de/Mode1/UHU_P...uecklisten.xls.
But for me there's still too much not clear. For instance
I want to use the opto3 option: HCPL2231(stated by Uli as the best option).
Then in DIY servo controller thread, tomkroscavage (05-23-2006, 08:04 PM)wrote when using this optocoupler: "If you are using the HCPL-2231 just do not insert R18 and R25 as this opto comes with internal schmitt-trigger and
push-pull-drivers and is already TTL compatible."

So is there someone who can give me a non-ambiguous list for building a UHU controller using IRFP260 (150V DC and 30A) and HCPL2231

Greetings Sam

Hi man, and welcom on CNCZONE !

Just try not to start too much threads in the UHU forum, and join already open threads instead, this way the UHU forum won't be flooded.

You can join this thread: Old Regular UHU (for 60V to 80V and less) and ask those who already built and are running the UHU drivers, you are following their path, so, they might be able to help you with your quetions !

Hello cnc2,


this is my first post, sorry maybe it's better as you indicated to put it in another thread?
Can this thread be removed then? I'll move my request to the "Old UHu" thread

Well, you can't delete a thread but, you can ask the moderator to delete it for you.

The moderator of this forum is Al The Man, just ask him & see what he says !
