Features
The TMCM-035 is a compact motor driver module for highly dynamic or high torque axis. It can be
combined with the driver-less modules TMCM-100, TMCM-301 or TMCM-302 or with any step / direction
controller. Its small size and low power dissipation, together with the variety of three different
control interfaces, make it an optimum solution for integration on any user board. The board can be
connected to a baseboard or customized electronics with a pin connector. Applications are consumer
and industrial controls, CNC power stages, lab automation, robotics, pick- and place machines
The TMCM-035 drives a two-phase bipolar stepping motor, with a maximum coil current of 5A and a
maximum voltage of 50V. It is based on the TMC239 or TMC249 stepper motor driver chip. The
interface between the control logic and the TMCM-035 module can be either Step / Direction, SPI or an
analogue interface. The maximum motor current can be selected via external inputs. Since the new
Version V2.0 of the board, the module has been extended from maximum 16 to 32 and 64 microsteps.
