Overview of Motor Modules
The Motor Modules in the SINAMICS S system in booksize format are implemented as
inverters. They make the energy from the connected motors' DC link available at an adjusted
voltage and with variable frequency. The control information is generated in the Control Unit
and distributed to the individual Motor Modules via DRIVE-CLiQ.
Depending on the type (Single or Double), each Motor Module has one or two DRIVE-CLiQ
interfaces for connecting the motor encoder evaluation (Sensor Modules).
