6.2.1

Conducted noise immunity

Noise is specified as a periodic and random distribution of frequencies covering a band from DC to 10 MHz.
Maximum allowed noise values given below are peak-to-peak measurements and apply at the drive connector.
+5V
0 to 100 kHz
150mV
100 kHz to 10 MHz
100mV
6.2.2

Power sequencing

The drive does not require power sequencing. The drive protects against inadvertent writing during power-up
and down.
