PMD Juno Velocity and Torque Control IC Family
Performance Motion Devices Juno is a family of motor-control integrated circuits with distinct velocity, torque and step-motor members. This review focuses on choosing the correct control function, motor support and package for a custom controller board.
Key Specifications
Specification | Details |
Velocity examples | MC71113 for DC brush, MC73113 for brushless DC, MC78113 for selectable DC brush/brushless DC in current velocity product information |
Torque examples | MC71112/MC71112N for DC brush; MC73112/MC73112N for brushless DC |
Power-stage scope | External bridge-type switching amplifier and supporting circuitry required |
Package selection | Velocity examples use 64-pin TQFP; specified torque N variants use 56-pin VQFN |
Interfaces | Serial, SPI, analog commands and CAN availability depend on the exact subfamily and function |
Development tools | Matched developer kit, Pro-Motion and C-Motion host SDK as applicable |
Velocity IC loop rates | MC7X113: programmable velocity loop up to 10 kHz; current loop 20 kHz |
Velocity IC PWM settings | MC7X113: 20, 40, 80 or 120 kHz |
Engineering Assessment
Juno is useful for OEMs designing their own motor-control electronics with a clearly defined loop and motor requirement. Select the complete IC reference and external power stage; a Juno control chip is not a finished amplified drive, and family interface lists do not apply uniformly to every member.
Applications
OEM motor-control boards for medical and laboratory equipment, robotics and spindle control; suitability depends on the exact Juno IC, external amplifier, feedback and final system validation.
