Important NOTE:
It is critically important to not exceed the recommended input voltages as this may cause
unrepairable damage to the Zikodrive ZD SERIES UART Motor Driver. The max voltage
recommended for any digital or analogue inputs is 5Vdc. DO NOT APPLY Higher Voltage PWM as
this will damage the board.
All wires must be kept as short as possible to reduce EMC emissions from the motor phase cables
and to reduce noise on both the analogue and digital inputs. If you require more information
regarding good wiring practice, please contact Zikodrive
