The Si5HyUdMCDF1-30V-20A  is a 30V 20A, microprocessor based, Single, Closed-Loop, Hybrid, Unidirectional, Motor-Controller with an integrated heat sink and with a Digital Feedback port.  This board uses pulse-width modulation (PWM) to efficiently control the speed of a brush type DC motor (or load current) in open or closed loop control mode in the 0 to 600W power range, and in 5W steps. The desired control mode is selected by a jumper (J1M). An open-circuit (no jumper) selects the open-loop mode, while short-circuit (jumper installed) selects the closed-loop mode. The desired motor speed (or load current) is set by a (0 to 5V) range external analog voltage (applied to I1 input pin on port CN4). The Si18V1RPM-Sens optical interrupter (connected to port CN3) along with Si18V1RPM-Wheel optical wheel (mounted on the motor shaft) provides proportional feedback, keeping the motor-shaft rotating at a constant speed. The speed-range is adjustable with an onboard 25-turn trim pot in the 50 to 3000 rpm range. This board requires a single 9V to 30V DC power source (unregulated and unfiltered) at a 0A to 20A current range to operate normally.  An onboard microprocessor generates a 5kHz or 20kHz PWM carrier signal, controls the load-power (or motor speed) and monitors the sensor inputs. The PWM carrier frequency is user selectable by the jumper CN4, 20kHz when CN4 is open and 5kHz when short. The high frequency PWM rate provides a smooth motor-speed control, and insures a quiet motor environment. As the name hybrid (Hy) implies, the required motor speed (or PWM pulse-duration) is derived from a variable analog-voltage (V_I1,G), while the other control-signals are digital. This analog (I1) input is zener-diode protected. An onboard LED (red) is used to monitor the load-voltage. A small (2.3”x2.4”x0.45”) finned integrated heat sink is included with mounting hardware (as shown on the photograph) to operate at 20A or 600W power levels. Higher power-levels (30V, 33A or 1000W) can be achieved with more efficient heat-sinks.

A Typical Application of the Si5HyUdMCDF1-30V-20A

In this closed-loop application (shown below) the shaft-speed of a 24V DC Motor is controlled, with the accessories Si18V1RPM-Sens and Si18V1RPM-Wheel. The desired motor speed (or PWM pulse-duration) is linearly adjusted with the Si5Pot1-5k accessory (an external 1-turn 5kW pot); and efficiently controlling the motor power in the 0 to 600W range in 4W steps. The DC Motor can be purchased from Bodine, www.bodine-electric.com ; or from other vendors, http://www.e-motorsonline.com/emotors/dcmproduct_list.php .

Warning:  The connecting wires to the Motor and the Power Supply must be heavy gauge copper wire (#12 AWG or heavier) to handle the rated current level. In addition, these heavy gauge wires act as a heat sink, protecting the board from overheating.
