General Safety Instructions
- This product should be operated only by qualified electrical specialist.
- Never leave operating board unattended.
- There is a possible risk of burns due to the hot surfaces while operating the EDPS board. Reason for this could be the high currents present in the motor driving outputs.
- All externally connected power sources must be SELV protected (Separated or Safety Extra Low Voltage).
- All wiring and installation should be performed only with all external power sources switched OFF or disconnected.
- No wiring or mechanical setup changes should be performed while the board is operating.
- The product is rated for indoor, dry environment use only.
- The product is intended to be used only in horizontal position on a non-conducting and non-inflammable surface.
- The mechanical setup must ensure that the board and all of its parts are firmly fixed in place to prevent accidental or unwanted movement(e.g. sliding, falling. etc.).

On-Board Temperature Sensor
There is a on-board 1-Wire temperature sensor DS18S20Z+ from Maxim located in the middle of the PCB for optimal readings.
Addional 1-wire sensor(s) can be connected to the connector J16:
Figure 4: 1-wire sensors connector J16.
- Pin 1(DQ), 3 (GND),5 (+3.3V) at the same 1-wire bus as the onboard one
- Pin 2(DQ), 4 (GND),6 (+3.3V) at a separate 1-wire bus
Power and Power-On Sequence
DC 12V power supply for the Motor and Driver board
The power source must be SELV (Separated or safety extra-low voltage) protected.
The motor drivers and the reference motor on the pre-mounted motor board TEC0060 are supplied by this voltage.
The internal +5V digital supply is generated from this +12V supply.
DC 5...48V power supply for the Motor only
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:
External power supply for the motor must be SELV (Separated or safety extra-low voltage) protected.
- only allowed to be used for electrical specialist for the used electrical voltage and power conditions
- only allowed to be used under electrical laboratory conditions
- only allowed to be used in horizontal position on a non-conducting and non-inflammable surface
- only allowed to be used with a wiring, which fulfills the current rating for the maximum possible currents.
- only allowed to be used with a suitable current limiting circuit.
- The maximum continuous current must not exceed 30A.
- The delivered fuse "Littelfuse Tpye 142.5631.5302" must be used as current limiter between connector J5 and J6.
- To limit the current for smaller motor loads an ADDITIONALLY appropriate current limiter can be used e.g. a current limited power source or a fuse integrated in the wiring.
- only allowed to be used with appropriate connectors at the M5 screw connectors, which means M5 cable lugs must be used and fastened according to technical standards.
- only allowed to be used, if the "Drive Boad high current signals" conducting up to 30A nominal, are covered by isolating, mechanically stable, non-inflammable (UL V-1 or better) material
The "Drive Board high current signals" are the motor outputs A, B, C and Fuse F1 Connectors J5 an J6 and further internal connections shown white marked in the following picture:
Figure 5: High-current parts of the TEC0053.
It is mandatory to use the delivered isolating cover of the PCB made of plexiglass as a minimum protection. Use holes H1, H9, H3 and H4 with the delivered 10mm spacers when mounting.
Figure 6: Top view of the Board with isolating transparent plexiglass cover attached.
Figure 7: Side view of the Board with isolating plexiglass cover.
The cable lugs used should be isolated in the outer border area of the Drive Board.
Make sure that the Isolating PCB Cover is overlapping the conducting material by a minimum of 20 mm.
Initial Operation
To use a separate power supply for the motor supply perform the following steps:
- Disconnect the reference motor board TEC0060 by unmounting its screws and the encoder cable from J10.
- Mount the delivered 30A fuse to the connectors J5 and J6 with the delivered M5 screws.
- For lower supply current requirements of the used motor a fuse with a suitable lower current rating integrated in the supply wiring is recommended.
- Connect with cable lugs the DC of +5..48V to J6 and the corresponding GND to J1.
- The cable length is limited to 3m.
- Connect the three motor phases to J2 (A), J3 (B) and J4 (C).
- The cable length is limited to 3m.
- Optional: Connect the encoder to J10 or J11 and set jumper field according to signal specification (differential or single ended).
Power-On Sequence
Any power sequence of the three supply sources is allowed:
- +3V3 Supply from the Control Board, generated by Control Board supply
- +12V and
- Optional +5..48V Motor Supply
Reference Motor Board TEC0060
For easy connection of the reference Motor and Encoder to the Driver Board a special Motor Adapter Board TEC0060 is included in the EDDP Kit.
Figure 8: Reference Motor Board TEC0060 with the Motor attached.
Reference Motor
The reference motor is manufactured by Anaheim Automation. The order code for the motor with the encoder already mounted is BLWR111D-24V-10000-1000SI. Please note that the encoder is not available separately. The nominal motor voltage is DC 24V, however, only 12V is supplied by the Reference Motor Board, which results in reduced performance.
Refer to the BLWR11 - Brushless DC Motors and Single-Ended Encoder with Index Channel for more information.
