    To connect the motor, one can either use the header with 2.54mm spacing (J3) or the 4-pin RIACON connector (J2). The TMC332 evaluation board can control two and three phase stepper motors. Three phase stepper motors have to be connected to X1_U (red), X2_V (blue) and Y1_W (yellow). Two phase stepper motors have to be connected to X1_U, X2_V, Y1_W and Y2;...

    5-pin header (J4) or a 5-pin RIACON (J5) 5.08mm connector are available. These two connectors have different pin assignments: Header RIACON Encoder compare outputs (J9) The three encoder compare outputs of the TMC332 are available on this 5-pin header. Header n.c.

    TMC332 Evaluation Board Manual (V. 2.10 / January 8, 2010) Step/Direction input connector (J8) With this input, Step/Direction signals (TTL level) can be applied to the TMC332. The connector is a 4 pin RIACON 3.5mm connector. Signal Step Reference switch connector (X1100) This 10-pin header connector has inputs for two reference switches that can be used additionally to those on the board (S4, S5).

    TMC332 Evaluation Board Manual (V. 2.10 / January 8, 2010) 4 Control Elements Potentiometer Depending on the selected mode, the potentiometer is used to define either a position or a speed. The mode is selected with the control key S2 (4.2, p. 7).
  • Page 8: Configuration Jumpers

    When this jumper is open, the TMC428 does react to the evaluation software but no signals are passed on to the TMC332. The SPI access to the TMC332 register bank is unaffected by this jumper.

    Take care of the BBM settings. After powering up the board, the BBM of the TMC603 is enabled. A value of 4 is configured as the default value in the TMC332. The BBM time of the TMC603 on this board equals a setting of approximately 9-10 in the TMC332. The switching losses in the transistors will be higher with the default setting of 4.
