Analog Servo Drive AZ6A8 
Description 
Power Range 
The AZ6A8 PWM servo drive is designed to drive brush-type DC motors at a high switching frequency. To increase system reliability and to reduce cabling costs, the drive is designed for direct integration into your PCB. The AZ6A8 is fully protected against over- voltage, over-current, over-heating and short-circuits. A single digital output indicates operating status. The drive interfaces with digital controllers that have analog +/-10V output. This servo drive requires only a single unregulated isolated DC power supply, and is fully RoHS (Reduction of Hazardous Substances) compliant. 
See Part Numbering Information on last page of datasheet for additional ordering options.

Information on Approvals and Compliances 
US and Canadian safety compliance with UL 508c, the industrial standard for power conversion electronics. UL registered under file number E140173. Note that machine components compliant with UL are considered UL registered as opposed to UL listed as would be the case for commercial products. 
Compliant with European CE for both the Class A EMC Directive 2004/108/EC on Electromagnetic Compatibility (specifically EN 61000-6-4:2007 and EN 61000-6-2:2005) and LVD requirements of directive 2006/95/EC (specifically EN 60204-1:2006), a low voltage directive to protect users from electrical shock. 
RoHS (Reduction of Hazardous Substances) is intended to prevent hazardous substances such as lead from being manufactured in electrical and electronic equipment.

Notes 
1. Maximum duration of peak current is ~2 seconds. Peak RMS value must not exceed continuous current rating of the drive. 
2. Lower inductance is acceptable for bus voltages well below maximum. Use external inductance to meet requirements. 
3. Additional cooling and/or heatsink may be required to achieve rated performance.
