The controller can communicate with the following components via DRIVE-CLiQ: 
Table 1-6  Components on DRIVE-CLiQ: 
Component  Function 
SINAMICS S120  ... converts speed setpoints into signals for controlling the motor 
and supply the power required to operate the motors. 
Line Module (SINAMICS S120)  ... generates a DC link from the supply system. 
Motor Module (SINAMICS S120)  ... is used to control motors. 
CX32  ... enables additional axes to be connected for SIMOTION D435 
and D445. 
Terminal Module TM31  ... enables a terminal expansion via DRIVE-CLiQ (additional 
analog and digital I/Os). 
Terminal Module TM41  ... enables a terminal expansion (analog and digital I/Os) and 
encoder simulation. 
Terminal Module TM54F  .... enables a terminal expansion (secure digital inputs/digital 
outputs) for control of secure motion monitoring functions of the 
integrated drive. 
Terminal Module TM15, TM17 
High Feature 
The terminal modules TM15 and TM17 High Feature are used to 
implement inputs of measuring inputs and outputs of cam outputs. 
In addition, these terminal modules provide drive-related digital 
inputs and outputs with short signal delay times. 
Sensor Modules SMx  ... enables acquisition of encoder data from connected motors via 
DRIVE-CLiQ. 
DMC20 DRIVE-CLiQ Hub  …Enables the number of DRIVE-CLiQ interfaces to be increased 
and the creation of a star-shaped topology.
