6-20 Interfaces
The input circuits shown in the following diagrams support
connections to differential TTL line drivers, single-ended TTL line
drivers and open collector devices. These inputs are selectable under
software control.

Specification Description Minimum Maximum
ON State Voltage
(Volts)
Voltage difference between the + and –
inputs that indicate an ON state. 1.0 +15
OFF State Voltage
(Volts)
Voltage difference between the + and –
inputs that indicates an OFF state. -1.0 -15
Common Mode
Voltage (Volts)
Voltage difference between an encoder sig-
nal input and the reference ground of the
drive.
-15 +15
Current Draw
(mA)
Current draw into the + input or – input
-5 +5
A or B Signal
Frequency (MHz)
Frequency of the A or B line inputs. Count
frequency is 4 times this frequency, since the
circuitry counts each of the four transitions in
a single line.
1
Index Pulse Width
(nsec)
Pulse width of the index signal. The index
signal is active for a percentage of the revo-
lution, therefore the speed of the encoder
dictates the pulse width.
