Description
The TMCM-1021 is a single axis controller/driver module for 2-phase bipolar stepper motors with state of the art feature set. It is highly integrated, offers a convenient handling and can be used in many decentralized applications. The module can be mounted on the back of NEMA11 (28mm flange size) and has been designed for coil currents up to 0.7A RMS (low current range, programmable) or 1.4A RMS (high current range, programmable, new additional range since hardware version 1.4) and 24V DC supply voltage. With its high energy efficiency from TRINAMIC’s coolStep™ technology cost for power consumption is kept down. The TMCL™ firmware supports remote control (direct mode) and standalone operation (with TMCL program being executed on the TMCM-1021 itself).
Highlights
- Motion profile calculation in real-time
- On the fly alteration of motor parameters (e.g. position, velocity, acceleration)
- High performance microcontroller for overall system control and serial communication protocol handling
- For position movement applications, where larger motors do not fit and higher torques are not required
Bipolar stepper motor driver
- Up to 256 microsteps per full step
- High-efficient operation, low power dissipation
- Dynamic current control
- Integrated protection
- stallGuard2 feature for stall detection
- coolStep feature for reduced power consumption and heat dissipation
Encoder
- sensOstep magnetic encoder (max. 1024 increments per rotation) e.g. for step-loss detection under all operating conditions and positioning supervision
Interfaces
- Up to 4 multi-purpose inputs (2 shared with general purpose outputs)
- 2 general purpose outputs
- RS485 2-wire communication interface
Software
- TMCL: standalone operation or remote controlled operation, program memory (non volatile) for up to 876 TMCL commands, and PC-based application development software TMCL-IDE available for free.
