BLDC Motor Drive [RMCS-3001] 

Chapter 2: Drive Overview: 

RMCS-3001 is Rhino Motion Controls introductory Brushless low voltage (15–48V) DC driver 
designed  for  smooth  and  quiet  operation  without  compromising  on  torque  and  control  at 
higher speeds. It has short-circuit protection for the motor outputs, over-voltage and under-
voltage protection and will survive accidental motor disconnects while powered-up.  

The  ENABLE,  BRAKE  and  DIRECTION  inputs  are  optically isolated.  These  inputs  work  with 
3.3V or 5V logic drive signals. Motor will run on application of 3.3V/5V to ENABLE pins. To 
facilitate the direction change of Motor shaft, dedicated DIR pin is given. After applying the 
3.3V/5V to DIR pin, Power reset is required. BRAKE feature provided for braking the motor 
rotation. 

2.1 Driver Acceptance: 

Upon receiving the driver, please check the following aspects:

 

 

Make sure the driver model is consistent with that ordered. 

 

Unpack the driver and make sure it is free from damage and no part is missing. 

 

Make sure that all sets of screws in the driver are securely tightened. 

 

2.2 Key Features: 

 

Smooth and quiet operation at all speeds and extremely low motor heating 

 

DC Input supply voltage rated at 15V to 48V 

 

Delivers up to 5A of continuous current 

 

Rated current : 5A 

 

Peak current : 20A 

 

2.5V,  3.3V  and  5V  compatible  BRAKE,  DIRECTION  and  ENABLE  with  2-wire  opto-
isolated interface 

 

Short-circuit  protection  for  the  motor  outputs,  over-voltage  and  under-voltage 
protection  

 

LED indication for power and error states 

 

Potentiometer for speed  control 

 

Potentiometer for current gain selection (Inside chassis) 

 

Pluggable type connectors 

 

Compact size (100mm * 75mm *25mm)
