Do you have a final release PDF or brd-sch etc.. final files of your layout???? I like yours best, and am planning on building it. Or better yet, pro blanks fab boards??

Which pins are used for H-bridge in the last hex code yapsc_v1?
is this controller for a BLDC motor or Brashed ?
i search for a Brushless dc or Ac Motor Contoroller .
Hi, my servo encoder output is A and B do not have a output INDX whether it will work properly with driver version V1?

As much as I like the idea of open-source hardware/software, I am greatly disappointed in the lack of an inexpensive funcitonal DC servo driver.
Don't get me wrong, there have been some interesting designs posted and some that appear to have merit (roverto_c's Schema.zip needs minor mods like schottky diodes diodes) but all seem to be incomplete, some missing source code, others have strange power supply requirements (OPA549).
Those who have offered such designs like Iron-Man and Max-Mod have all vanished making obtaining a reliable working design impossible.
I'd really like to find a working solution that targets the electrocraft E240/G240 type DC servo motors since they are plentiful, include an A/B/Z encoder and run from +48volts but like many, luck is not on my side as no solution seems to exist.
If someone has a proven design I'd really like to consider it so contact me please.

I have not vanished. If anyone is interested please contact me. the OPA549 is an operational amplifier and requires a split power supply. If anyone has interest then please let me know. Yes there are a lot of projects out there, but for high performance something other than a dspic or ARM STM32F type processor is needed. I have used the DsPic servo amps to mill all the conversion parts for the Denford NovaTurn Lathe and the parts for the AMD Gizmosphere 1 enclosure. You can see my work posted on CncZone and the Denford web sites.
For serious applications, Texas Instruments processors should be looked at. AC Servo Drives | TI.com. They are high performance and have software for most motor designs, DC, AC, BLDC servos etc.
I have gathered components and info for a upgrade to the OPA549. It is a TLE 6209 R (Delivers up to 6 A continuous and 7 A peak current, Operates at supply voltages of up to 40V).
I could provide some help and circuit boards if the interest is high.
Currently busy upgrading the NovaTurn, iBOB2 and AMD GizmoSphere 1, PathPilot.
If anyone is interested please let me know.
Hope this helps,

The Elm Chan servo drive works well for the electrocraft servos, I have them on my router and have never had a problem.
ELM - DC Servomotor Controller
That is about as cheap as you can get for a DIY servo drive.
Another option is this one, that also does BLDC, I am going to try build one myself, time permitting...it is derived from the original dsPIC servo and MAX MODs version.

Good luck.
