TMCM-3230 Hardware Manual
Hardware Version V1.30 | Document Revision V1.20 • 2019-MAR-01
The TMCM-3230 is a compact and easy to use 3-axes stepper motor controller and driver unit for
embedded applications. It offers CAN bus, UART and USB interfaces for communication and sup-
ports stand-alone operation, also. The TMCM-3230 features stealthChop™ for absolute silent mo-
tor control, spreadCycle™ for high speed stepper motor commutation, a fully integrated hardware
motion controller with sixPoint™ motion ramps, as well as stallGuard2™ and coolStep™.
