Features
The TMCM-078
is a single axis step / direction stepper motor driver unit. It is similar to the TMCM-IDX
with higher power, more interface options and extended configuration possibilities. The TMCM-078
provides on-board DIP switches for easy configuration.
Operation via RS485 using simple ASCII format commands is also possible.
The TMCM-078 supports supply voltages of up to 75V and motor coil currents up to 7 A RMS (10A
peak). Up to 256 micro steps are supported for either high accuracy or high speed.
All inputs and outputs are accessible either via pluggable screw connector or by high density (2mm)
JST connectors.
Applications
Step-/ Direction stepper driver for industrial applications
Robotics
Centralized motor driver mounted in switchboard
Decentralized motor driver mounted near motor
Motor type
Coil current from 0.7A to 7A RMS (10A peak)
15V to 75V nominal supply voltage (or any value in between)
Highlights
Fully protected drive
Digital selection of motor current and standby current
Micro step resolution can be changed in order to get high accuracy or high speed
Different chopper modes allow best adaptation to application / motor
Many adjustment possibilities make this module the solution for many applications
Size: 145 x 96 x 33 mm
