9.5.4 Pin descriptions
This section provides a pin-out of the FC-SCA and a description of the functions provided by the pins.

9.5.5 FC-AL transmitters and receivers
A typical FC-AL differential copper transmitter and receiver pair is shown in Figure 14. The receiver is required
to provide the AC coupling to eliminate ground shift noise.

9.5.6 Power
Power is supplied through the FC-SCA with support for +5 volts and +12 volts. All of the voltage pins in the
drive connector are the same length.
Four 12 volt pins provide +12 volt power to the drive. The current return for the +12 volt power supply is
through the common ground pins. The supply current and return current must be distributed as evenly as pos-
sible among the pins. The maximum current typically occurs while the drive motor is starting.
Three 5 volt pins provide logic power to the drive. The current return for the +5 volt power supply is through the
common ground pins. The supply and return current must be distributed as evenly as possible among the volt-
age and ground pins.
