MODULE Module for Stepper TMCM-1076 Hardware Manual Hardware Version V1.10 | Document Revision V1.00 • 2018-JUN-25 The TMCM-1076 is an easy to use stepper motor driver module. The module is controlled via a step and direction interface. One configuration pin selects the current control mode between stealthChop™ for absolute silent motor control and spreadCycle™ for high speed. A TTL UART interface allows for more advanced configuration and permanent parameter storage via TMCL™IDE.

TMCM-1076 Hardware Manual • Hardware Version V1.10 | Document Revision V1.00 • 2018-JUN-25 1 3 / 22 Features The TMCM-1076 is an easy to use stepper driver unit with state of the art feature set. It is highly integrated and offers a convenient handling. TMCM-1076 can be used with a simple step and direction interface and can be configured using a TTL UART interface. stallGuard2 and coolStep can be configured via TTL UART interface and are disabled by default. 1.
TMCM-1076 Hardware Manual • Hardware Version V1.10 | Document Revision V1.00 • 2018-JUN-25 1.2 1.2.1 4 / 22 TRINAMIC’s Unique Features stealthChop™ stealthChop is an extremely quiet mode of operation for low and medium velocities. It is based on a voltage mode PWM. During standstill and at low velocities, the motor is absolutely noiseless. Thus, stealthChop operated stepper motor applications are very suitable for indoor or home use. The motor operates absolutely free of vibration at low velocities.
TMCM-1076 Hardware Manual • Hardware Version V1.10 | Document Revision V1.00 • 2018-JUN-25 1.3 5 / 22 stallGuard2 stallGuard2 is a high-precision sensorless load measurement using the back EMF of the motor coils. It can be used for stall detection as well as other uses at loads below those which stall the motor. The stallGuard2 measurement value changes linearly over a wide range of load, velocity, and current settings. At maximum motor load, the value reaches zero or is near zero.

Communication with the host PC, for example when using TRINAMIC’s TMCL-IDE, is done via the Virtual COM port installed by the converter driver. More information on the TMCL-IDE and the latest release can be found here: www.trinamic.

Typically, at this nominal current setting the stepper motor and the driver electronics will get hot.
