SSI (Synchronous Serial Interface) is a digital protocol used by many encoder feedback device manufacturers. IONI Pro servo drive supports SSI encoders starting from firmware version 1.6.1.

SSI support details[edit | edit source]

As SSI is loosely defined standard, drive's SSI support may not cover all possible variations of the protocol. The following characteristics are supported:

  • Read clock 1.5-2 MHz
  • Strectched first clock for slower encoders
  • Multiturn & singleturn readout
    • Multiturn resolution from 0-16 bits
    • Singleturn resolution 4-32 bits
    • Sum of MT+ST resolutions must be between 4 and 32 bits
  • Binary and Gray code support

List of tested SSI encoders:[edit | edit source]

Wiring SSI encoder[edit | edit source]

Wiring of SSI depends on the variant of SSI protocol present.

SSI encoder[edit | edit source]

Typical SSI encoder has differential signal lines and a supply voltage lines:

  • Power supply lines (2 wires)
  • Clock input (2 wires)
  • Data output (2 wires)

Connection to IONI Pro drive by following table:

BiSS wire IONI drive pin IONICUBE D-Sub 15 pin number Remarks
Cable shield Connector shell
GND GND 10
5V input 9 Pin 9 is 5V supply output from IONICUBE to encoder
Clock+ GPI2 12
Clock- GPI3 11
Data+ C+ 15
Data- C- 14

AMS SSI encoder chips[edit | edit source]

AMS SSI encoders are wired following way to IONI encoder connector:

AMS wire IONI drive pin IONICUBE D-Sub 15 pin number Remarks
VSS (Ground) GND 10
VDD5V (5V input) 9 Pin 9 is 5V supply output from IONICUBE to encoder
CLK GPI3 11
CSn GPI2 12
DO GPI1 13

Refer to IONI & IONICUBE user guide for more info on wiring encoders.

Configuration[edit | edit source]

SSI parameters in Granity. Example settings for AMS AS5311.

To configure SSI, use Granity version 1.11.1 or later. Configuration steps:

  1. Find out encoder MT and ST resolutions from encoder manufacturer's data sheet
  2. Select Serial data encoder from Feedback deviceFBD
  3. Select SSI type from Serial encoder typeFBS
  4. Set number of MT and ST bits into parameters Single-turn bitsFBST and Multi-turn bitsFBMT. If MT not specified in encoder data sheet, set it zero.
