Common mode voltage will also be lower, maybe inductance for electric time constant is lower and possibility to use MOFSET instead of IGBT might be a third reason. Lower inductance make possible faster dynamic response as torque change faster but also increase current ripple. > The drive system supports several standard encoder interfaces, but > nothing proprietary.
