TMCM-103 Single axis stepper controller/driver module 2A/24V with encoder interface
Description
The TMCM-103 is a single axis 2-phase stepper motor controller and driver module with built in encoder feedback makes it an optimum solution for high-reliability drives. It provides a complete motion control solution in a very small size for embedded applications which can be connected to a baseboard (BB-103) or customised electronics.
An incremental encoder can be used to detect step loss or to control the target position and the chopSync feature allows high speed movement without resonance problems. Communication traffic is kept very low since all time critical operations, e.g. ramp calculation are performed on board. The firmware of the module may be updated via the serial interface and the ‘TMCL’ firmware option comes with the PC based software development environment TMCL-IDE.
Using predefined TMCL (Trinamic Motion Control Language) high level commands such as ‘move to position’ or ‘constant rotation’ means rapid and fast development of motion control applications is guaranteed. Host communication is possible via RS-232 or CAN interface and a user TMCL programme can be stored in the on board EEPROM for stand-alone operation. With the ‘CANopen’ firmware option it is possible to operate the PANdrive in CANopen networks together with other equipment.
