APPLICATION EXAMPLES: HIGH VOLTAGE – MULTIPURPOSE USE
The TMC2130 scores with power density, integrated power MOSFETs, and a versatility that covers a
wide spectrum of applications from battery systems up to embedded applications with 2.0A motor
current per coil. Based on stallGuard2, coolStep, dcStep, spreadCycle, and stealthChop, the TMC2130
optimizes drive performance and keeps costs down. It considers velocity vs. motor load, realizes
energy savings, smoothness of the drive and noiselessness. Extensive support at the chip, board, and
software levels enables rapid design cycles and fast time-to-market with competitive products.

In this application, the CPU initializes the
TMC2130 motor driver via SPI interface and
controls motor movement by sending step
and direction signals. A real time software
realizes motion control.
Here, an application with up to three stepper
motors is shown. A single CPU combined
with a TMC429 motion controller manages
the whole stepper motor driver system. This
design is highly economical and space
saving if more than one stepper motor is
needed.
The CPU initializes the TMC4361 motion
controller and the TMC2130. Thereafter, it
sends target positions to the TMC4361. Now,
the TMC4361 takes control over the TMC2130.
Combining the TMC4361 and the TMC2130
offers diverse possibilities for demanding
applications including servo drive features.
