The controller connection is a 50 pin header that matches the pinout of the Mesa 4I27 motion controller (2 axis only) or the FPGA based Anything I/O cards. The 7I33 uses another 50 pin header for servo amp/encoder connections, while the 7I33TA uses Phoenix compatible 3.5 mm headers and comes with supplied pluggable terminal blocks.
7I33. If you are using TTL encoder inputs on a pre-rev D 7I33 card with a FPGA card having 3.3K pull-up resistors, it is best to remove the pull-up resistor SIP packages connected to the 7I33 from the FPGA card.
AUX 5V POWER 4 pin header P1 or 2 pin terminal block P1 can be used to supply 5V power to the 7I33 if the controller cable is too long and voltage drop too high. P1 has the following pinout: FUNCTION (Rev.
50 PIN SERVO AMP/ENCODER CONNECTOR The 7I33s servo amplifier / encoder connector (P2) is a 50 pin latching header. P2 has the following pinout: FUNCTION DIRECTION FUNCTION DIRECTION ENCA2 TO 7I33 ENCA0 TO 7I33 /ENCA2 TO 7I33 /ENCA0 TO 7I33 ENCB2...

OPERATION PWM RATE The 7I33 is meant to operate with PWM rates from 100 KHz to 10 MHz. Operation at lower PWM rates will result in excessive output ripple . When used with SOFTDMC firmware, it is best to set the PWM rate to the maximum (192 KHz). If the motion control firmware is capable of generating interleaved PWM, that option should be enabled to minimize output ripple.
Normally motor drives have differential inputs to reduce noise on their analog inputs. To make the best use of this feature, the 7I33 should be wired to the drive with shielded twisted pair wiring. Different drives have different input signal names, but typical connections are 7I33 DRV to drive INPUT+, 7I33 GND (adjacent to DRV) to drive INPUT- (these two signals are the twisted pair).
