The AM is the lightest standard member of the ESC3 controller family. It can be used in a wide range of applications, especially in industrial and automotive. Using the most modern technologies, it achieves extreme dynamics and maximal efficiency. It implements smooth start and regenerative braking, all within minimum dimensions. The AM controller is capable of driving all common types of electric motors.
Product editions
The AM series is available in different editions, each tailored to specific application requirements:
- AM controller — Standard sealed aluminium housing � best protection and thermal conductivity.
- Raptor A Flat — Optimized for airborne applications, most compact flat form factor.
- Raptor A Fan — Optimized for airborne applications with active air cooling.
Product variants
The AM controller is a very versatile product. To match all specific requirements, multiple properties can be adjusted, so many variants exist. Different variants are denoted by different MPN (Manufacturer Part Number).
The MPN consists of several parts:
- Base name -- denotes compatible firmwares (e.g. AM-felix, AM-raptor, AM-serpent)
- Assembly code -- defines voltage/current rating, communication interfaces, motor sensors, and internal HW configuration
- Finish variant -- defines signal/power wiring, housing, and enclosure
