    2.54mm standard header connectors. A version with screw terminal connectors is available (TMCM-160- EvalBoard). Its integration into the TRINAMIC family of stepper motor controllers makes it easy to choose either a stepper motor or a BLDC motor or any combination for an application.

    Figure 3.1: Pinning CAUTION: Since the two connectors of the TMCM-160 are similar be careful not to connect the module turned around. When powered up this would damage the module. Figure 3.1 depicts the connectors and their position on the board. The supply, motor and hall connector is next to the three capacitors.

    To be able to cope with voltage which might be fed back by the motor, the supply should provide a sufficient output capacitor, additionally a 39V suppressor (zener-)diode may be used. Copyright © 2006, TRINAMIC Motion Control GmbH & Co. KG...
  • Page 9: Functional Description

    General Functions (explore using the Windows based demo software) The TMCM-160 module can either be remote controlled via the PC demonstration software or a user specific program, or it can be controlled by an analog voltage (stand alone mode). The function of the stand alone mode can be modified by the user by writing initialization values to the on-board EEPROM, e.g.
  • Page 10: Under Voltage Behavior

    You can use the TRINAMIC TMCL IDE to update the modules firmware and to test / set all of the modules parameters. If your motor shows instable behavior, you have to tune the PID regulator values. In order to do this, you need to use the TMCL IDE.
  • Page 11: Parameterizing The Pid Velocity Regulator

    The default parameter set of the PID regulator covers a range of motors suitable for the TMCM-160 module, and typically works stable up to 15000 rpm maximum motor velocity. However, for slower motors, the response time with this parameter set may become quite slow.

    255 to the current limit parameter. Upon next power on, all EEPROM values are loaded with the default settings. However, this also clears the temperature measurement calibration, which should be recalibrated before operating the device near its temperature limits.
