Connecting MR sensor bridges for safety-related applications
For safety-related applications iC-MSBSAFETY requires an external overvoltage protection of supply VDD (Zener
diode with fuse, for instance) and external pull-down resistors at the inputs X3 to X6 towards GNDS (of up to
100 kΩ).

PLC Operation
There are PLCs with a remote sense supply which re-
quire longer for the voltage regulation to settle. At the
same time the PLC inputs can have high-impedance
resistances versus an internal, negative supply voltage
which define the input potential for open inputs.
In this instance iC-MSB’s reverse polarity protection
feature can be activated as the outputs are tristate dur-
ing the start phase and the resistances in the PLC de-
termine the pin potential. During the start phase nei-
ther the supply VDD nor the output pins, which are
also monitored, must fall to below ground potential (pin
GND); otherwise the device is not configured and the
outputs remain permanently set to tristate.
In order to ensure that iC-MSB starts with the PLCs
mentioned above pull-up resistors can be used in the
encoder. Values of 100 kΩ are usually sufficient; it
is, however, recommended that PLC specifications be
specifically referred to here.
