INPUT CONFIGURATION
Rev B1, Page 13/30
The input stage for the incremental signals ABZ is con-
figurable as single-ended TTL and differential (RS-422
or LVDS). Differential inputs are possible only for a sin-
gle counter configuration and the input configuration
shown in table 18.

Table 17: TTL Inputs
The configuration bit EXCH exchanges the input A and
the input B of the counters. The default counting direc-
tion is positive in clockwise (CW) direction (A edge take
place before B edge). But it is also possible to change
the counting direction with the register EXCH. See table
21, table 22 and table 23.

Table 18: RS422 or LVDS Input Counters Configuration
If two or more counter are configured, the TTL in-
put configuration shown in table 20 must be used
and table 13 shows all the possible counter config-
uration.

It is possible to configure the differential input stage of
iC-MD in two different modes; differential RS-422 and
differential LVDS. See table 19.

The index (Z) signal can be inverted as shown in table
24 and table 25 with the register bits INVZ(1:0).

Table 20: TTL Input Counters Configuration
Note that the three counters configuration don’t imple-
ment any Zero signal. It has only A and B input signals.
Register bits TTL and LVDS set the configuration of the
quadrature input signals.
