TMC2208 Stepper Motor Driver Module
The TMC2208 V1.2 is the latest version that uses the UART function directly and eliminates the need for extra wiring.
It has a flexible micro-Plyer interpolation unit that can provide up to 256 micro steps per step resolution. This allows for smooth sinusoidal control even in systems with limited pulse rates. As a stealth chip, it uses fine music technology that is widely used in 3D printing. Therefore, it is compatible with existing 3D printer electronics and does not require costly redesign. It has pulse/direction input and can operate independently. The configuration is done through a digital input.
Features:
- This device has the following features:
- It can operate with a voltage range of 3.3-5V.
- It can handle a maximum current of 1.2A per phase continuously (with cooling) and 2A per phase in short bursts.
- It is compatible with both 3.3V and 5V signals.
- It supports up to 1/256-step microstepping.
- It allows configuration via CFG pins or UART interface.
- It uses Stealth Chop technology to reduce noise from stepper motors.
- It uses Spread Cycle technology to improve motion smoothness.
- It has built-in protection against high temperatures, high currents, low voltage, and short circuits.
- It comes with a heatsink to enhance cooling performance.
