Electronics
The heart of an electronically controlled antenna is its dedicated controller. When designing it, our main objective has been a most reliable electronic, which has been achieved by over-dimensioning each component. The "ad hoc " driver for each step-motor uses a very reliable transistor-bridge. Each driver's peack-current of 10 Amps allows an extremely reliable function of each step-motor even under accidental short-circuit condition and severe electrostatic conditions. We could have employed a much cheaper material to drive the step-motors, but this would have made it untollerably less reliable. Each driver's operating parameters such as chopper current and frequency, half- and full-step are fully linearly controlled by the CPU ! The stop-current is independently generated for each motor by a very stable current generator in compliance with the step-motors. | ||||
