4.1.2 BiSS interface
The BiSS (Bi-directional Serial Synchronous interface) is an open-source interface that can be
used with many types of absolute encoder. The BiSS interface connections are made using the
15-pin D-type female connector X8. Twisted pair cables must be used for the complementary
signal pairs e.g. Data+ and Data-. The overall cable shield (screen) must be connected to the
metallic shell of the D-type connector. Connector X8 includes a ‘Sense’ pin, which is used to
detect the voltage drop on long cable runs. This allows the MotiFlex
e
100 to increase the supply
voltage on pin 12 to maintain a 5 VDC supply at the encoder (200 mA max).
