Roboteq's HBL23xx is a high‑power, dual channel controller for hall‑sensor equipped Brushless DC motors. The controller uses the position information from the sensors to sequence power on the motors' 3 windings in order to generate smooth continuous rotation. The controller also uses the Hall sensor and/or Encoder information to compute speed and measure traveled distance inside a 32‑bit counter. The motors may be operated in open or closed loop speed mode. The HBL23xx features several Analog, Pulse and Digital I/Os which can be
remapped as command or feedback inputs, limit switches, or many other function. The HBL23xx accepts commands received from an RC radio, Analog Joystick, wireless modem, or microcomputer. For mobile robot applications, the controller's two motor channels can either be operated independently or mixed to move and steer a vehicle. Using CAN bus, up to 127 controllers can be networked at up to 1Mbit/s on a single twisted pair.
