It integrates all real * Minaturized low cost stepper motor controller for up to three independant axes time critical tasks in reliable, dedicated hardware: An integrated * Built in ramp generators motion ramp profile generator as well as an adaptable micro- * High-performance individual micro stepping (up to 64x) via built in sequencer The TMC429 is a miniaturized low cost, high performance step- step sequencer with microstep RAM table. Advanced stop- and * SPITM host interface with easy-to-use protcol reference switch handling allows for precise and fast referencing * Step-/Direction or SPITM driver interface as well as on-the-fly position checking. Automatic motor current * On-the-fly alteration of target motion parameters (e.g. position, velocity etc.) control gives high motor dynamics while saving energy. The interrupt output can generate precise position pulses. connects to the recent coolStepTM drivers (TMC260, TMC262 and * perfect fit for (2-phase drivers) TMC260, TMC262, TMC236, TMC246, TMC239, TMC249 and (3-phase drivers) TMC389 TMC389) via Step- & Direction signals (S/D) or to the classic * Fullstep frequencies up to 20 kHz TRINAMIC drivers TMC236, TMC239, TMC246 and TMC249 via * Read-out of driver status The TMC429 is fully downwards compatible to the TMC428 and SPITM. The communication with the host microcontroller is done INTERFACE * easy-to-use SPITM (20bit) with an extra SPITM interface. The host just needs to do highlevel control tasks, e.g. giving the command: Drive motor 2 to * Step & Direction outputs ELECTRICAL DATA * Power down mode (100 A) * 3.3V or 5V operation with CMOS/TTL compatible IOs position 1000. The TMC429 automatically calculates the motion ramp based on velocity and acceleration parameters.
