The Violin series of miniature servo amplifiers for DC brush motors incorporates custom mixed analog/digital
ICs and a hybrid power stage.
The basic configuration is a current mode amplifier targeting the OEM market.
No trimmers are used in the basic version.
The product meets UL508c and relevant CE regulations.
The power stage is implemented on a single ceramic substrate. This design enables very high thermal conductivity,
high current carrying capacity, better EMC and good mechanical strength.
The control section is implemented by dedicated custom ICs which contribute to higher reliability through
lower component count and improved performance Through board-level Integration.

Accessories
VIO-STARTER
The
VIO-STARTER is an add-on interconnection board for the VIO servo amplifier that plugs on top of the amplifier.
The purpose of this board is the translation of the VIO solder type pins into screw type terminals thus enabling
easy connectivity for evaluation and low quantity applications.
