Well, I did a servo amp as a kit about 2 years ago, but it was not really
cost effective, although it is a nice amp.

What I am working on now is an interface/motion control, so there are no
amps
and volts concerned, other than +/- 10 V velocity command signals to
the servo amp of your choice, and +5 V out to power encoders.
The digital I/O was the real tough nut to crack, but I have finally done it,

although it required modification to a number of areas of EMC.

I need to do some more simple work to get all the limit switches decoded
properly and such things, but compared to getting the data to just jump
the gap between RT and Linux, that will be pretty easy. then, i have to
work
on getting it all integrated with a late version of EMC and into the BDI
format.

I am planning on having two versions available, a 3 card set plus
motherboard
to run servo systems, and a single card to run steppers with or without
encoders, plus digital I/O.

What I have now available is on my web page at :
http://pico-systems.com/PPMC.html

There is a link to a price list, too.

Thanks,

Jon
