General DC power requirement notes.
1.Minimum current loading for each supply voltage is not less than 1.7% of the maximum operating current shown.
2.The +5V and +12V supplies should employ separate ground returns.
3.Where power is provided to multiple drives from a common supply, careful consideration for individual drive power requirements should be noted. Where multiple units are powered on simultaneously, the peak starting current must be available to each device.
4.Parameters, other than start, are measured after a
7.3.1Conducted noise immunity
Noise is specified as a periodic and random distribution of frequencies covering a defined frequency. Maximum allowed noise values given below are
+5v | = | 250 mV pp from 100 Hz to 20 MHz. |
+12v | = | 450 mV pp from 100 Hz to 100 KHz. |
|
| 250 mV pp from 100 KHz to 20 MHz. |
|
| 150 mV pp from 20 MHz to 80 MHz. |
7.3.2Power sequencing
The drive does not require power sequencing. The drive protects against inadvertent writing during
