The hardware is fully compatible with RepRAp Arduino Mega Poloulo Shield (RAMPS) or other similar Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) 3D Printing platforms, representing a very fast drop-in replacement of similar solutions. Contrary to most other competitor solutions, the EVALSP820-XS helps customers to really exploit the benefits of working at high microstepping resolution.
UM2434 Board overview Board overview The main characteristics of the board are: • Supply voltage from 7 V to 45 V • Output current up to 1.5 A rms for each motor phase • Peak current regulation through trimmer • Form factor and connectivity compatible with RAMPS (RepRap Arduino Mega Pololu Shield) or similar boards •...
UM2434 Quick start Quick start Safety precautions Note: Warning! Some of the components mounted on the board could reach hazardous temperatures during operation. While using the board, please adhere to the following precautions • Do not touch the components • Do not cover the board •...
UM2434 Setting off time duration Setting off time duration The R5 resistor sets the off time duration for the PWM current control circuitry as indicated in the figure below. Low resistance value imposes a short off time reducing the current ripple into the motor phases. The default value is 10 kΩ, corresponding to about 14 µs.
