Prodigy Machine Control BoardsTurnkey motion control across single or multi-axes.Prodigy® Machine Control Boards provide high-performance board-level motion control for scientific, lab automation, medical device, industrial, and robotic applications. Available in PCI, PC/104, stand-alone, and machine controller configurations, these boards support multiple motors, including Brushless DC, step, and DC Brush motors. And they are available in 1, 2, 3, and 4-axis configurations. Programmable versions of the board include PMD Corp.’s C-Motion Engine (CME) that allows developer code to run directly on the board—off-loading the system host or enabling stand-alone operation. Based on our industry-leading Magellan® ICs, these machine control boards provide user-selectable profile modes, including S-curve, trapezoidal, velocity contouring, and electronic gearing, with on-the-fly parameter change. Servo loop compensation utilizes a full 32-bit position error, PID with velocity and acceleration feedforward, integration limit and dual biquad filters for sophisticated control of complex loads. The machine controller version has on-card Atlas® digital amplifiers that eliminate the need for external amplifiers along with enhanced analog and digital I/O. Included with every Prodigy Machine Control Board is the Pro-Motion GUI which makes it easy to set up and analyze system parameters and motion performance. PMD Corp.’s C-Motion and VB-Motion language simplifies the program development process and enables the use of industry standard C/C++ or Visual Basic programming languages.

Prodigy/PC104 Machine Control Boards
Our Prodigy®-PC/104 Machine Control Boards provide Brushless DC, Step, and DC Brush motor control. They communicate via a PC/104 bus, CAN bus, or serial port. PC/104 boards are used in embedded motion control systems for industrial control, automation, and robotic applications. The Prodigy boards are available in 1, 2, 3, and 4-axis versions, and use the advanced Magellan® motion control IC. Performance Motion Devices' development software, Pro-Motion, and easy-to-understand developer language, C-Motion and VB-Motion, also ships with each machine control board.
