It is recommended to mount the driver vertically to maximize heat sink area. Use forced cooling
method to cool the system if necessary.
3. Pin Assignment and Description
The PM752 has two connectors, connector P1 for control signals connections, and connector P2 for
power and motor connections. The following tables are brief descriptions of the two connectors.
More detailed descriptions of the pins and related issues are presented in section 4, 5, 9.

Details
PUL+
PUL-
Pulse signal: In single pulse (pulse/direction) mode, this input represents pulse
signal, each rising or falling edge active (set by inside jumper J3); 4-5V when
PUL-HIGH, 0-0.5V when PUL-LOW. In double pulse mode (pulse/pulse) ,
this input represents clockwise (CW) pulse
，
active at high level or low level
(set by inside jumper J3). For reliable response, pulse width should be longer
than 1.5
μ
s. Series connect resistors for current-limiting when +12V or +24V
used. The same as DIR and ENA signals.
DIR+
DIR-
DIR signal: In single-pulse mode, this signal has low/high voltage levels,
representing two directions of motor rotation; in double-pulse mode (set by
inside jumper J1), this signal is counter-clock (CCW) pulse
，
active at high
level or low level (set by inside jumper J3). For reliable motion response, DIR
signal should be ahead of PUL signal by 5
μ
s at least. 4-5V when DIR-HIGH,
0-0.5V when DIR-LOW. Please note that rotation direction is also related to
motor-driver wiring match. Exchanging the connection of two wires for a coil
to the driver will reverse motion direction. The default rotation direction can be
reverse by inside jumper J2.
ENA+
ENA-
Enable signal: This signal is used for enabling/disabling the driver. High level
(NPN control signal, PNP and Differential control signals are on the contrary,
namely Low level for enabling.) for enabling the driver and low level for
disabling the driver. Usually left
UNCONNECTED (ENABLED)
.
Selecting Active Pulse Edge or Active Level and Control Signal Mode
There are two jumpers J1 and J3 inside the PM752 specifically for selecting active pulse edge or
effective level and control signal mode, as shown in figure 2. Default setting is PUL/DIR mode and
rising edge active (NPN, and PNP control signal is on the contrary).
J2 inside the driver is used to reverse the default rotation direction. Please note that rotation direction
is also related to motor-driver wiring match. Exchanging the connection of two wires for a coil to the
driver will reverse motion direction.

4. Control Signal Connector (P1) Interface
The PM752 can accept differential and single-ended inputs (including open-collector and PNP output).
The P M752 has 3 optically isolated logic inputs which are located on connector P1 to accept line
driver control signals. These inputs are isolated to minimize or eliminate electrical noises coupled
onto the drive control signals. Recommend use line driver control signals to increase noise immunity
of the driver in interference environments. In the following figures, connections to open-collector and
PNP signals are illustrated.
