Galil Internal Sine Amps: Superb Accuracy and 16 Bit Resolution without Compromise
Galil's line of digital sine amplifiers have long been the best choice for demanding applications that require precise control at high bandwidths and the ease of use that comes with an integrated motion controller and amplifier package. With the latest revision to these amplifiers, Galil continues to lead the industry with superior current resolution and accuracy.
Galil sine amplifiers are now the only digital servo amplifiers on the market offering full 16 bit PWM current control. In addition, Galil has eliminated the usual frequency/resolution tradeoff inherent with PWM amplifiers. This means that Galil sine amplifiers deliver full 16 bit PWM resolution at a lightning fast 33 kHz. Galil sine amplifiers also now come standard with a current control loop integrator, ensuring accurate and linear current transfer across the entire range of commanded current. As a result, PID response to commanded moves is pinpoint accurate.

These features are included with all Galil digital sine amplifiers, which span multiple power ranges, and are compatible with the DMC-40x0 and DMC-41x3 motion controllers. As always, Galil's commitment to quality and value mean that these amplifiers are offered at an incredible per axis price, feature rich and rock solid.
Amplifiers will begin shipping with these new features on July 1, 2018 with DMC-40x0 and DMC-41x3 controllers. Amplifiers purchased from Galil after April 1st, 2018 are eligible for a no cost upgrade while controllers still under warranty, purchased after January 1st, 2017 can be upgraded for a nominal $125 fee. Full support for all new features on these amplifiers will also require 1.3 firmware be installed on the DMC-40x0 or DMC-41x3 motion controller with which they are paired.
