Featuring low power consumption and a small footprint, the devices also provide 3-wire operation of 28mm Saia motors, including UCL and UCE linear step motors, and UCD and UCB rotary step motors. The linear solution can provide forces from .1 to 50N with a step resolution down to 0.021mm and distances up to 150mm. The rotary solution can be combined with a Saia UGA, UGD or UGM gearbox to obtain higher torque and RPM outputs, and increase step resolution, all from the same integrated driver board.
