ADI Trinamic TMCM-6110 6-Axis Stepper Motor Driver Board

Analog Devices Inc. TMCM-6110 6-Axis Stepper Motor Driver Board is a standalone board that supports up to 6x bipolar stepper motors with up to 1.1ARMS coil current. This board is designed for sensorless, load-dependent current control and is capable of driving up to 1.6A of current from each output (with proper heatsinking). The TMCM-6110 Driver Board is powered by proprietary StallGuard2™, CoolStep™, and  SpreadCycle™ technologies including a trapezoidal ramp generator. The 6-Axis Stepper Motor Driver Board features a 9VDC to 28VDC operating voltage range and provides RS485, CAN, and USB interfaces. An integrated protocol processor supplies a high-level TMCL communication. Typical applications include laboratory automation, life-science, test and measurements, robotics, biotechnology, liquid handling, semiconductor handling, and manufacturing.

The TMCM-6110-CABLE is a cable loom set available (optional) for the TMCM-6110 motor driver module. This set includes

  • 1x Cable loom for a power connector
  • 6x cable loom for reference switch connectors 0-5
  • 6x cable loom for motor connector 0-5
  • 2x cable loom for I/O connector 0+1
  • 1x USB type A connector to mini-USB type B connector cable
