The Backplane provides the PWM with +5VDC with respect to 0VDC, along with +17VDC and HV+ (at
250VDC) both with respect to HV-.

4.29.2 PWM Connections
J1 on the Backplane is the PWM connection port. The PWM heat sink is secured with fasteners to the
compressor housing below the Backplane.
The 6-pin/wire connects to the rear (left) bearing power feed through. The 4-pin/wire connects to the
front (right) bearing power feed through. Refer to "Figure 4-280 Bearing Power Feed Throughs and
PWM Connection Port" for an illustration of a Major Revision "F" and later compressor.
