Introduction

The TMC5160 is a high-power stepper motor control driver chip with a serial communication interface that combines a flexible ramp generator for automatic target positioning with the industry's most advanced stepper motor driver. Combined with an external power transistor, it can achieve high dynamic and high torque motor drive. With TRINAMIC's advanced SpreadCycle and StealthChop technologies, the drive operates noiselessly and achieves maximum efficiency and optimal motor torque control. High integration, high energy efficiency and small form factor make system miniaturization and performance expansion feasible, resulting in cost-effective solutions. The complete solution greatly reduces learning time while achieving high performance.

operating mode

Mode 1: Full-featured motion control and drives

Control motor operation using the built-in 32-bit motion controller

Mode 2: Pulse and direction driver

Use SPI interface for configuration, STEP/DIR signal to control the motor

Mode 3: Simple step and direction driver

Use DIP switches for configuration and STEP/DIR signals to control the motor

Modify records

(October 27, 2020 15:42) The board size has been modified from 52x100mm to 50x100mm. At the same time, some traces and component locations have been adjusted to adapt to the size change.

(January 2, 2021 at 23:08) Modify the control signal interface type to DC3-10P. Use double-ended FC-10P cable and adapter board to easily connect to the controller

(May 5, 2021, 18:26) Replaced a larger current NMOS and optimized the wiring (July 23, 2021, 13:20) Fixed a BUG: incorrectly connecting VSA directly to VS was changed to be connected to 12VOUT
