Introduction
SI220 represents an encoder interface unit, designed to convert output signals of so-called "sine-cosine-encoders" and similar measuring systems into incremental quadrature impulse signals, according to the A/B (2 x 90°) standard.
Under consideration of an adjustable multiplier the unit interpolates a corresponding number of impulses from every sine wave. An additional programmable divider provides division of the impulses if applicable, before they appear at the output. Impulses are available both on the RS422 and with HTL standard.
The maximum sine input frequency is 400 kHz. The interpolation rate can be set in a range from 5 to 50, i.e. the unit can generate up to 50 pulses from one sine period.
The maximum output frequency is 4 MHz. Where applicable, the output frequency can be reduced by a selectable divider 1 : 1 ... 1 : 255.
Independent of the selected interpolation rate, an interpolation time can be set in order to limit the output frequency to a desired maximum value. The unit provides auxiliary output voltages of 5.2 volts and VIN, all short-circuit-proofed, for power supply of the sine/cosine encoder. Errors will be indicated by a LED and at the same time by a digital control output. Errors can be reset by means of a pushbutton on the unit, or by a remote reset signal.
All settings are done by means of two 12-pin DIL switches which are accessible from the top site and the bottom site of the housing. The mechanical construction provides a compact housing for rail mounting, with screw terminals and one SUB-D-connector.
Power must be disconnected before making DIL switch settings.

Connections
The unit provides a 9-pin SUB-D connector (female on the unit site) for connection of the SinCos sensor. For easy power supply of the encoder, an auxiliary voltage of either 5.2 V or approx. 24 V can be connected to the SUB-D socket. The incremental output impulses are available with RS422 standard and HTL standard (pushpull) at the same time, and one output of both or both outputs at a time may be used, quite according to the application.
All inputs and outputs as well as the power supply refer to the same reference potential (GND)!
In case of errors the Error Output switches to HIGH. At the same time the yellow front LED will be lit. To release an Error state, a HIGH signal must be applied to the Error Release input (PNP, HTL, a positive signal of 10 ... 30 VDC will release the error). Errors may be cleared also by pushing the small button on the top site of the unit.
The unit operates with a 18 ... 30 VDC power applied to terminals 1 (GND) and 2 (+24V) of X1.
Input 1 can be used to stop the output independently of the input. If a high signal is present, there are no more output pulses.
Input 2 can be used to switch off the Z-divider. If a high signal is present, a Z output signal is no longer visible.

Connection Overview

At any time, the over-all transmission characteristics of encoder, external components and capacity of cable must ensure proper signals at the input of the unit, with respect to levels, shape and phase displacement A/B.
The output swing of the HTL push-pull outputs corresponds to the input supply voltage on terminals 1 (GND) and 2 (+24V) of X1.

Pin assignment of SUB-D-connectors
SinCos-Inputs (X3)
Standard encoders with differential outputs can be connected directly to the corresponding pins SIN+, SIN-, COS+, COS-, REF+, REF-. Where longer cables must be used, terminating resistors between the non-inverted and the inverted signal of each channel may be of advantage.

Using the DIL switch, the Z pulse can be switched on the input or a Z pulse is automatically generated with each sine period.
The sine-cosine signals on the input site are highly sensitive analogue signals! Therefore, it is mandatory to use proper screening. Use of cables with pair wise twisted leads is highly recommended. The cable length should not exceed 5 meters if possible.

Filtering Interpolation factor Interpolation time

Hints for settings of DIL switch S1:  Distortions of the input signal result in fluctuation of the output frequency.
 Use of the glitch filter results in increased interpolation times at standstill or with low input frequencies, therefore, reduces noise and jitter of the output signal by a few increments up and down in standstill. However, when the glitch filter is switched on, fast changes of the speed can result in temporary proportional errors between input frequency and output frequency during acceleration

Frequency Divider and Error Signals
The programmable frequency divider provides decrease of the output frequency by an adjustable division rate between 1 : 1 and 1 : 255.
The following errors are detected and indicated by the yellow LED and the Error output:
 Wire break with one of the signals SIN+, SIN-, COS+ or COS Too low amplitude on one of above signal lines  The REF+ and REF- signals are not monitored for errors The input frequency exceeds its
maximum level, the output frequency is unable to follow
Depending on the settings on the DIL switch S2, error signals remain active until remote acknowledgement, or reset automatically upon elimination of the error. In case of an error the proper function of the unit is not ensured and a loss of encoder pulses can occur. In case of an error, the error output switches to HIGH. At the same time, the yellow front LED will be lit. An error is acknowledged via the Error Release input or via the small pushbutton on the front of the device. If the input frequencies are too high, resetting an error may fail.

Changes of the DIL switch positions will become active only after the next power-up of the unit!

Z divider Division rate

Si220_01a_oi_e.docx / Nov-23

Page 19 / 22

Delays
There is a delay time between the analogue input signals and the incremental output signals, which is typically 3 µsec. when the divider is switched off. Use of the divider function will extend the delay time correspondingly. The delay time is constant, and causes a frequency dependent phase shift between the input and output signals.
Miscellaneous Hints
 The unit will reach full accuracy only after a transient period of approximately 20 full sine cycles at the input. Before that, the input frequency should not exceed about 50 % of the normal maximum frequency.
 The application of digital interpolation procedures requires use of quantization steps, which can cause a certain dither of the output signal.
 The quality of the output signal depends essentially on the input signals. Therefore, maximum elaborateness is recommended with screening, running of cables and cable length.
 SI220 does not possess a potential separation, i.e. the unit GND is at the same time also GND of the sensor. Therefore, it is important to ensure clear conditions with earthing and to prevent earth loops and balance currents flowing through the unit. Where unrulable potential situations should come up, it is recommended to use a fully separate power supply for the SI 220 unit
