The manual says: Quiscent VCC supply current: typical = 1.6, max = 2.3 mA Do I understand that this is how much current does logics consume with 15VDC? In that case one for each chip should be totally fine, because that dc-dc converter has 200 mA output. >> Oh yes, I really would like to do that. >> Unfortunately I do not have much of a choice to get those motors >> running.

Am I missing something? Where do You see 160V? Here is motor data (from the first email of this thread): Motor type: T3-0130-60-560 Winding number: 01-00111 Rated Speed: 6000 min^-1 DC Bus Voltage: 560 V Nominal AC Voltage: 330 V Rated Motor Voltage: 309 V Rated Torque: 1,00 Nm Rated AC Current: 1,40 A Stall Torque: 1,30 Nm Stall AC Current: 1,67 A Peak Torque: 5,2 Nm Peak Current: 7,2 A Max. Speed: 12000 min^-1 EMF Constant: 47,0 V/1000 Torque Constant: 0,78 Nm/A Terminal Resistance: 12,7 Ω Terminal Inductance: 21,5 mH Number of poles: 6 El. Time Constant: 1,7 ms Mech. Time Constant: 2,4 ms Thermal Time Constant: 30 min Rotor Inertia: 0,65 kg*cm^2 If motors were meant for 160V, I would already had purchased GraniteDevices drives weeks ago...
