Re: The 2009 Control System Q&A Thread

For reference, when the 883 and 884 were profiled they were found to have a step resolution of 6.44us (with some steps actually 12.85us) with the ability to generate 127 discrete voltages.

But as no announcement has been made with regards to motor controllers and their operational specifications, any further discussion is pure speculation.

One closing note with regards to PWM generation - the cRIO is not limited to 256 steps, thus allowing for far longer PWM periods while still maintaining the 6.625us resolution.
