INFO
The baseboard BB-160 allows to build a ready to use BLDC mo-
tor driver unit using the TMCM-160 driver module. It integrates
velocity and torque (via current) control as well as a hall sensor
based positioning mode. The position resolution depends on
the motor, i.e. a standard 8 pole motor gives a motor axis reso-
lution of 15 degrees. The module can be used in stand alone
operation (analog control) or it can be remotely controlled via
RS-232 (or RS-485).
All important signals and the power supply lines can be con-
nected easily. For motor, power supply and hall sensors screw
terminals are available and for RS232 (or RS485) a 9-pin D-SUB
connector. Some signals like the analog inputs are adjustable
either onboard or they can be remote controlled.

DATA
FEATURES
• 14V to 40V supply voltage
• fast prototyping of motion control
applications with BLDC motors (e.g. lab use)
• ad-hoc evaluation of the TMCM-160
module without the need for developing
a custom PCB
• BB-160 + TMCM-160 suitable even
for series production
• RS-232 or RS-485 Interface
• screw connectors for motors
and hall sensors for fast prototyping
• access to all control inputs
of the TMCM-160
• screw holes for reliable mounting
beyond prototyping
• setting of motor voltage and current
by two potentiometers
