The Burleigh 6000-1-0-1-1 is a single-axis Inchworm controller engineered for precision piezoelectric actuator control in high-resolution positioning applications. This model delivers high-speed motion while maintaining submicron accuracy through selectable open-loop or closed-loop operation. Open-loop configuration provides TTL-based motor control without position feedback, ideal for straightforward drive applications. Closed-loop systems incorporate encoder feedback, enabling step-size programming, position display, zero-point establishment, target positioning, and active position holding.
## Technical Specifications
• **Axes:** 1 axis of motion
• **Motor Type:** Piezoelectric Inchworm actuator drive
• **Control Modes:** Open-loop (TTL signals) and closed-loop (with encoder feedback)
• **Front Panel Control:** Full function access via dedicated controls
• **Encoder Interface:** Maximum 2 m cable length from encoder to controller; longer distances require Model 7006 Remote Encoder Box with differential TTL interface

• **Manual Port:** 25-pin D-type rear connector accepting TTL level signals
## Key Features
• **Dual Interface Architecture:** Manual port for direct TTL control; remote programming capability via TTL and RS-232 protocols
• **PZT Drive Electronics:** Integrated piezoelectric transducer electronics providing voltage, current, and timing control for Inchworm motor operation
• **External Power Supply:** Level I TTL open-loop interface supplies +5 V and +12 V for auxiliary circuits
• **Manual Control Compatibility:** Direct interface with Burleigh 6003 Joystick and 6005 Handset for manual operation
• **Computer Integration:** Optional 670 Series Computer Interface for automated control and data acquisition
## Typical Applications
Precision scanning, automated microscopy stages, optical alignment, and laboratory positioning systems requiring high-speed, high-resolution single-axis motion control.
## Compatibility & Integration
The 6000-1-0-1-1 integrates with standard TTL control systems, manual input devices, and computer interfaces. Encoder extension capability via the Model 7006 Remote Encoder Box accommodates systems requiring separation between controller and position feedback devices.
