If you are not trained in the design and development of printed circuit boards, you will need additional sup- port for this point. maxon will be happy to provide you with a quote for designing and manufacturing a motherboard for your specific application.
Motherboard Design Guide Requirements for Components of Third-party Suppliers TVS DIODE (D1) To protect against overvoltage resulting from voltage transients or brake energy feedback, we recommend connecting a TVS (transient voltage suppressor) diode (D1) to the voltage supply cable. CAPACITOR (C1) The function of the ESCON Module 24/2 does not necessarily require the use of an external capacitor (C1).
Operating voltage +V Switching frequency of the power stage = 53 600 Hz A [ ] Nominal current of the motor (line 6 in the maxon catalog) Terminal inductance of the motor (line 11 in the maxon catalog) motor If the result of the calculation is negative, no additional chokes are necessary. Nevertheless, the use of chokes in combination with additional filter components can be useful to reduce the emission of electromag- netic interference.
The below wiring example refers to an additional inductance of 150 μH. If a different additional inductance is required, also the filter components must be adapted accordingly. Should you need further help with the filter design, contact maxon Support at http://support.maxongroup.com.
Motherboard Design Guide Design Guidelines Design Guidelines The following instructions are intended to serve as an aid for designing an application-specific motherboard and ensuring the correct and reliable integration of the ESCON Module 24/2. 5.2.1 Ground All ground connections (GND) should be internally connected to the ESCON Module 24/2 (equal potential). It is customary to equip the motherboard with a ground plane.
