Keysight / Agilent 10895A Overview
The Agilent 10895A VMEbus laser axis board supplies ultra-precise position (or distance) information for use in dimensional measurement and motion control system applications. The register-programmed position axis board provides a real-time hardware position output in 32-bit format. The output position is also readable over a VMEbus backplane.
As part of an Agilent VMEbus laser interferometer positioning system, the Agilent 10895A offers a high-performance solution for IC manufacturing, precision machining, and custom staging applications. The exceptional accuracy of the laser system allows the precise positioning and motion control required for consistent end-product production and quality.
Features:
- VMEbus Position Output
- Data Format:
- Units: fractions of a wavelength
- 2''s Complement: 32-bit parallel binary
- Positive Logic
- Least Significant Bit (or one count) equals resolution
- Data Rate Over Backplane >100kHz
- Data Age and Sample Ambiguity:
- After a sample operation, the value in the position register will reflect an actual position that occurred 0.1 to 1.4 us before the sample operation was initiated.
- Sample Delay:
- The position register may be read 1.5 us after a sample operation.
- P2 Connector Hardware Position Output
- Data Format:
- Units: fractions of a wavelength 2''s Complement: 32-bit parallel binary
- Positive Logic
- Least Significant Bit (or one count) equals resolution
- Data Update Rate:
- Agilent 5517A: 1.5-2.0 MHz
- Agilent 5517B: 1.9-2.4 MHz
- Agilent 5517C: 2.4-3.0 Mhz
- (Hardware included to synchronize to slower clocks)
- Data Age:
- Agilent 5517A: 2.1-4.1 us
- Agilent 5517B: 1.8-3.3 us
- Agilent 5517C: 1.5-2.7 us
- Data Age is dependent on the laser head reference signal (split-frequency) and by knowing exactly when, in relation to the rising edge of the Error Clock, the Position Error lines are sampled -- call this time deltaT. Data Age = ((0.34 us + delta T us)+(4.0 +/- 0.5) / (Reference in MHz)(us)) Additionally, the Data Age may vary up to 0.1 us typically and up to 0.25 us in a worst-case situation as a result of the reference frequency varying over time.
