Hi,

I am working on Raspberry Pi - B. I have to connect it to a AC Servo Motor Yaskawa 10C3C11.
I will have the following connections:

Rasp Pi ---- DC to DC booster ( 5 volts to 12 volts) ------ DC to AC inverter (12 volts DC to 110 Volts AC) ---- AC Servo motor.

I have to order the Booster and Inverter, what speifications would be important?

PS: I am sending PWM control signal from Pi to Motor

I am working on a Spasticity Detection Robot. My main objective is to control the SGMCS 10C3C11 using the Raspberry P-B board. I had an existing model of the robot which has the SGMCS motor + SGDV servo drive (controller).
But, the need for incorporating Raspberry Pi was that, SGDV servo drive was used by a software called SIgmawin.
But, Sigmawin did not give us enough flexibility in the control of the motor. It has some predefined inputs (eg: Forward direction x angle y speed , Reverse Direction k angle j speed).
I was able to control a small DC Servomotor with 3 Volts input.
So, using the same principle I want to control the bigger motor. So, I thought of using the DC-DC Boost and Inverter.

Do let me know, what is the right approach to get this.

Thanks
