Figure 8: CoolStep & StallGuard2 window
The above values activate CoolStep but the values can be fine tuned to make CoolStep work reliable
and in a way as you need it in your application. For that it is important to understand what each setting
is doing.
Current minimum: The current minimum setting will be the lowest current when CoolStep is
activated. With 1A RMS the current will either be reduced to a quarter or to the half of this current
when no or less force is applied to the motor shaft.
Current down step: Current down steps defines the speed of the current to drop down after load
gets released from the motor shaft.
Current up step: This setting defines the step height when hitting the lower StallGuard2 threshold
(Hysteresis start).
Hysteresis width: This setting defines the area of the StallGuard2 threshold (Hysteresis end).
Hysteresis start: This setting defines the switching point, related to the StallGuard2 value, to
boost up the current by one step.
