The HBC101 is an exciting evolutionary motion control product based on a Motorola DSP (Digital Signal Processor). The board can both control as well as capture RC (Radio Control) servo PPM (Proportional Pulse Modulation) signals at resolutions not seen in other servo control products.

The board has eight highresolution PPM outputs and eight highresolution PPM inputs. Unused servo output pins can be reconfigured as digital outputs for controlling on/off devices. Four of these outputs have been buffered so that small devices such as relays and solenoids may be directly driven.

Unused servo input pins can be reconfigured as digital inputs for detection of on/off signals. All input pins are buffered so that a input signal up to 40VDC can be detected with out fear of damaging the microprocessor.

The HBC101 is equipped with a 40 pin expansion header that can be used to add custom buit expansion boards or boards currently in development by PONTECH. The expansion port allows access to the ADC, PWM and SPI subsystems of the Motorola DSP. The port can be used immediately by taking advantage of the 8-channel 12-Bit ADC (Analog to Digital Converter) for reading analog voltage between 0 and 3.3 volts.
