Yaskawa JANCD-1001 (1001B) High-Speed I/O & Communication Board

The JANCD-1001 (1001B) is a high‑performance, multi‑function interface board from Yaskawa’s JANCD series, designed for YASNAC CNC systems and Motoman NX100 robot controllers. It integrates high‑speed digital I/O, servo signal conversion, and bus communication, serving as a key bridge between the main controller and field devices. The “1001” denotes 10‑series, 01 enhanced communication version, optimized for high‑precision, multi‑axis synchronous control with strong anti‑interference and compact design.
