5 Connectors of TMCM-3212 and TMCM-3213
The TMCM-3212 and TMCM-3213 are two members of a new family of modules with a modular architecture
composed of so called “bricks”.
The TMCM-3212 and TMCM-3213 consist of one interface brick, three single-axis stepper motor controller / driver
bricks and one supply brick. With the TMCM-3212 the interface brick offers CAN and RS485 interfaces while with
the TMCM-3213 the EtherCAT™ option is assembled instead. All other bricks are the same for both modules.
