2.2 Components and functionality
Components of a SIMATIC Drive Controller system
A drive-based solution with the SIMATIC Drive Controller is made up of the following
components:
● Power supply for SIMATIC Drive Controller and DRIVE-CLiQ components
● SIMATIC Drive Controller with fail-safe SIMATIC S7-1500 technology CPU and an
integrated SINAMICS S120 drive control (based on CU320-2)
● SINAMICS S120 power units:
– Line Modules
– Motor Modules
● Sensor Modules (SMx)
● Terminal Modules (TM)
● Motors with/without DRIVE-CLiQ
You can expand the drive configuration limits of a SIMATIC Drive Controller by connecting
additional drive systems using PROFINET IO with IRT, e.g. SINAMICS S120 CU320-2 for
control of multiple axes or the SINAMICS S210 single-axis servo converter system.
Note
The PROFIBUS interface cannot be coupled with other clock pulse systems. If you expand
the drive configuration limits with distributed drive systems, those systems must be
connected via PROFINET IO interface X150. Besides the MC-Servo, only PROFINET
interface X150 can also be coupled isochronously with the clock pulse system of SINAMICS
Integrated and the X142 technology I/Os.
