In this study, we designed and made Ultrasonic motor-digital multi controller(USM-DMC) using FPGA chip, A54SX72A made in Actel Corporation. By the minute, USM-DMC can adjust the frequency, duty ratio, and phase difference parameters of USM by digital input to be each 11bit from PC. Therefore, when we use this controller, it is possible to apply typical three parameters individually as well as multi-parameters simultaneously to control the speed and the torque. What is more, the strongest point is that it can trace frequency based on optimized frequency as compared with the phase difference because we can input optimized resonant frequency while in motoring. And we test the speed of USM with the adjustment of multi-parameters, the phase difference-frequency. As the result of the test, in the case of the multi-parameters of the phase difference and frequency, the speed characteristic is more linear and stable, and wider in the range of control than the single-parameter of the phase difference or the frequency.

In this paper, we propose a novel pc-based 8-channel USB interface digital multi-controller (DMC) has capacity to be able to adjust ultrasonic motor's (USM's) the parameters-frequency, amplitude, phase difference using FPGA. The proposed DMC can control parameters directly by digital logic through a FPGA. Since it has counter circuit for rotary encoder to measure position and velocity of USM, the other separate circuits are unnecessary. Therefore, it could reduce the size of controller and the production cost. Finally, to verify the performance of proposed DMC, we tested the speed characteristic of two types USM with no-load as adjusting the parameters.

In contrast to conventional electromagnetic motor, USM(Ultrasonic Motor), as piezoelectric ceramic applying ultrasonic mechanical vibration and as frictional-movement type motor, get rotational torque by elastic friction between stator and rotator, The USM, which is small motor without iron cores and coil as a simple structure, has little load weight, has character of high torque at low speed, and can apply a direct drive type without deceleration gear as low speed type. A response of USM from control input is satisfactory, and also generates much torque in low speed driving, and holding torque is much without supplying power. In this study, I designed and made Ultrasonic motor-digital multi controller(USM- DMC) using FPGA chip, A54SX72A made in Actel Corporation. By the minute, USM-DMC can control frequency, duty ratio, and phase difference of USM by llbit digital input from Pc. Therefore, when we use this controller, we can apply to typical parameter, frequency, phase difference, and voltage parameter, to control as well as we can do mixing control like phase-frequency, phase-voltage, frequency-voltage, frequency-phase-voltage, What is more, the strongest point is that it can trace frequency based on optimized frequency because we can input optimized resonant frequency while in motoring.
