INFO
The TMCM-142 is a high-performance single axis 2-phase stepper
motor controller and driver with encoder feedback. It offers an
aluminum U-shape profile for quick and robust mounting. The
integrated TMC457 motion controller provides superior perfor-
mance with regards to microstepping (up-to 1024), maximum
velocity (integrated chopSync™ avoiding resonances), S-shape
or linear ramp calculation in realtime and encoder feedback sup-
port (closing the loop in hardware with easyPID™ regulator).
The driver stage supports motors with up-to 5A RMS coil current
and offers exceptional low power dissipation. Its interface add-
ELECTRICAL
DATA
• up to 5A coil current RMS
• 24V to 75V DC supply voltage
• two-phase bipolar stepper motors with
1A to 5A coil current
• incremental encoder (2 or 3 channel, differ-
ential, open-collector or single ended)
SUPPORTED
MOTORS
INTERFACE
(WITH ADD
ON-BOARD)
• RS232, RS485, RS422, USB or CAN 2.0b host
• inputs for reference and stop switches
(optically isolated)
• general purpose analog and digital I/Os
• high precision and high repeatability with
encoder feedback and easyPID™ regulator
• chopSync™ for high velocities
• up-to 1024 times microstepping
• memory for 2048 TMCL commands
• motion profile calculation in hardware (RT)
• trapezoid or S-shaped acceleration ramps
• on the fly alteration of motion parameters
• TRINAMIC driver technology:
low power dissipation, no heatsink required
FEATURES
on board concept allows customer specific interface / connector
solutions. The TMCM-142 comes with the PC based software
development environment TMCL-IDE for the Trinamic Motion
Control Language (TMCL). Using predefined TMCL high level
commands like „move to position“ or „constant rotation“ rapid
and fast development of motion control applications is guaran-
teed. The TMCL program can be stored in the on-board EEPROM
for stand-alone operation.
