[0041] Specific hardware circuit design

[0042] Serial communication interface:

[0043] 2-way RS422 interface: RS422 is mainly used for long-distance communication and supports high-speed data transmission. It is suitable for industrial automation and remote monitoring systems. The RS422 interface has strong anti-interference ability and can work stably in harsh industrial environments. The servo control board uses the MAX490EESA chip, with a communication rate of up to 2.5Mbps. Combined with the static and surge protection chip TVS tube (TPD2E009DRTR-TP), it can protect the communication chip from static damage. Circuit Figure 2 shown.

[0044] 2-way RS232 interface: used for short-distance communication, commonly used to connect computers and external devices, supporting standard serial communication protocols. RS232 interface is widely used for debugging and data transmission of various devices and has high compatibility. The main communication chip uses MAX232ID, with a maximum data rate of up to 120Kbit / s. Combined with the static and surge protection chip TVS tube (TPD2E009DRTR-TP), the communication chip can be protected from static damage. Circuit diagram Figure 3 shown.

[0045] One TTL interface: Used for low-voltage signal transmission, suitable for communication with microcontrollers, featuring low power consumption and high speed. TTL interfaces are commonly used to connect to sensors and other low-voltage devices, ensuring stable signal transmission. This interface signal is derived from the STM32F407 chip pins and is not present in other devices.

[0046] 2-way RS485 interface: used for multi-point communication, supports data transmission over long distances and in high-noise environments, and is suitable for industrial fieldbus systems. The RS485 interface supports bus connections of up to 32 nodes, suitable for complex industrial control networks. The main communication chip uses the MAX13487EESA, with a communication data rate of up to 500Kbps. Combined with the static and surge protection chip TVS tube (TPD2E009DRTR-TP), the communication chip can be protected from static damage, such as Figure 4 shown.

[0047] IO interface:

[0048] 3-way PNP input interface: used to receive external sensor signals, with high sensitivity and stability, suitable for the connection of various sensors. The PNP input interface can effectively detect the status changes of external devices and provide reliable input signals.

[0050] CAN port:

[0051] 2-way CAN interface: can be used for data communication in industrial automation and servo systems, supports real-time control and high reliability, and is suitable for distributed control systems. The CAN interface has a high communication rate and strong anti-interference ability, and is widely used in the servo and industrial control fields.

[0052] Encoder communication interface

[0053] 2-way SPI interface: Currently, encoders with SSI communication are widely used in the servo industry, but the STM32F407 chip does not have an SSI interface. In hardware design, SPI simulation of SSI is required to achieve normal communication between the main control chip and the encoder. The 422 communication chip MAX490EESA is selected as the main communication chip, and the electrostatic and surge protection chip TVS tube (TPD2E009DRTR-TP) is used to protect the communication chip from electrostatic damage. The circuit is as follows Figure 6 shown.

The wide voltage design ensures that the control board can operate stably under different power supply conditions, enhancing the adaptability of the system.

[0057] Signal Isolation: Magnetic beads and the low-cost ISO7221C isolation chip serve as signal isolation devices to isolate signals, reducing costs while improving performance. This ensures electrical isolation between interfaces and enhances the system's anti-interference capabilities. The magnetic bead isolation design effectively prevents interference between power and ground signals, improving system reliability. The low-cost isolation chip electrically isolates the STM32F407 chip from the communication chips.
