The CF30 is a 3-axis open-loop controller for Mechonics piezo inertial drive stages. The full step size is approximately 700 nm and every full step is divided into 64 micro steps. Special drive waveforms provide particularly smooth motion, which is ideal for microscopy, optical alignment and other smoothness-critical applications.
The controller is operated with plain-text ASCII commands at up to 800 commands per second, keeping the integration effort low. Depending on the version, it offers a USB 2.0 (full speed) or EIA-485 (RS-485) interface. A single axis can be powered directly from USB (5 VDC); simultaneous control of all axes uses a 6 VDC user plug.
Drivers are available for Microsoft Windows 10/11 and Linux (32/64 bit), complemented by FTDI drivers for Windows, Linux and macOS.
