Piezo controller


The XD-C is a very compact plug and play piezo controller designed to control one ultrasonic piezo stage. The controller reads the integrated encoder of the piezo stage, generates and amplifies the driving signals and communicates with a host controller or PC through a simple ASCII protocol. The controller comes with a user-friendly Windows interface to steer the stage in open and closed loop. The stages can also be controlled through one of our software libraries which include code for Python, Matlab, C++ and LabVIEW.

Important steering parameters can be tuned digitally via the user interface. A motion sequence can be programmed in the user interface to steer the stage with a defined set of control parameters. One can also develop its own control interface by using Xeryon's LabVIEW driver.
