Application Notes
Leader-follower application
In this application, use a PCM4 to monitor the speed of the
leader motor (Figure 18). The PCM4 isolates the leader motor
from the follower drive, and outputs a voltage proportional to
the leader motor armature voltage. The follower drive uses this
voltage reference to set the speed of the follower motor. An
optional ratio potentiometer may be used to scale the PCM4
output voltage.
