AC Traction Controller for Electric and Hybrid Vehicles
Product Summary
The PM100DX is an AC Traction Controller designed for on- and off-road
Electric (EV) or Hybrid Electric (HEV) applications. The Traction drive is
fabricated using a patented high heat flux thermal design approach that dramatically reduces the size and weight of the
finished drive, and improves its life in the automotive environment. With extensive experience in automotive and military
vehicle traction and power electronics applications, RMS has achieved a major breakthrough in integrating Traction
Control into a vehicle.

High-Current Digital Outputs:
There are 4 high current 12V load driver outputs, two Hi-Side and two Lo-Side switches. These outputs may
be used for PWM depending on software resources.

CAN Interface:
There are two CAN2.0B compliant serial ports, capable of operation at 100k, 250k, 500k, and 1Mb/sec by software
selection. The terminator can be applied or opened under software control during setup or at any time. EMI filtering for
common-mode and differential-mode noise, and transient suppressors are used to improve the robustness of the serial I/O
system.
RS-232 Serial Interface:
There is one RS-232 serial interface with EMI filtering. This port can be used to set up and tune the controller, and to
download controller software updates from a PC or terminal. RMS offers a simple serial user monitor that runs on the
PC to allow changing parameters, changing the I/O functionality to suit the application needs, and other user-selectable
optimizations.
Encoder Interface:
For applications that use an incremental optical or magnetic encoder, there is a 5V interface to power the external encoder
and to receive, level translate, and filter the signals from A, B and INDEX channels. The DSP has specific hardware for
wide dynamic range speed and angle calculation from the encoder data.
Resolver Interface:
Upon request, a resolver can be used in place of the incremental encoder to determine machine rotor position and velocity.
The resolver is excited by a precision sinusoid, and the sine and cosine winding outputs are filtered for noise and presented
to the DSP to be digitized at 12b resolution. For more information, consult the factory.
