Especially for longer busses and/or multiple nodes connected to the bus and/or high communication speeds, the bus should be properly terminated at both ends. The TMCM-1316 StepRocker does not integrate any termination resistor. Therefore, 120 Ohm termination resistors at both ends of the bus have to be added externally.
TMCM-1316 StepRocker Hardware Manual • Hardware Version V1.20 | Document Revision V1.22 • 2021-MAR-26 18 / 25 9 Functional Description The TMCM-1316 StepRocker is a highly integrated single axis controller/driver module for stepper motors. It can be controlled via RS485 or USB serial interfaces (CAN retro- t option) and comes with the PC based software development environment TMCL-IDE for the Trinamic Motion Control Language (TMCL™).
TMCM-1316 StepRocker Hardware Manual • Hardware Version V1.20 | Document Revision V1.22 • 2021-MAR-26 19 / 25 10 Operational Ratings and Characteristics Never Exceed the absolute maximum ratings! Keep the power supply voltage NOTICE below the upper limit of +30V! Otherwise the board electronics will seriously be damaged! Especially, when the selected operating voltage is near the upper limit a regulated power supply is highly recommended.
