USED SEREN IPS Industrial Power Systems MC2 RF Automatic Matching Network Controller
The MC2 matching network controller powers and controls the operation of the Seren IPS Inc. AT-Series automatic impedance matching networks, provides operatoraccessible controls, a visual display of matching network status, and a control interface to the user’s processing system. Other MC2 features are listed below:
- ½ rack 2U high package
- 110VAC or 220VAC AC mains, field selectable
- Bright, easy to read 4 line vacuum fluorescent display, capable of displaying matching network status, RF power supply status, RF or DC probe voltage, phase and magnitude error signals
- Front panel controls for capacitor positioning, mode selection, and programming
- Scaleable forward and reflected power metering (requires interface connection to RF power supply)
- Scalable RF and DC probe display
- Programmable capacitor position presets
- Programmable capacitor position limits
- Remote controlled via analog system interface connector
- Matching network capacitors can be manually positioned from front panel controls while unit is in “Automatic” mode
- Loop-through control connectors for the RF power supply – simplifies connection of RF and DC probes, provides forward power, reflected power, and power setpoint monitoring
- Adjustable error amplifier gain
- Rear panel phase and magnitude error signal test points
- Limit condition backout: The MC2 controller reverses the matching network’s motors for a brief interval when a minimum or maximum position limit condition has been reached, allowing the matching network to re-tune, thus minimizing “stuck” network conditions. The limit condition feature can be enabled/disabled from the front panel.
