Features
The TMCM-1211 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 has been designed for coil currents up to 2.8A RMS and 24V
DC supply voltage. It is also equipped with end switch inputs as well as some general purpose digital
inputs and outputs and one analogue input. With its high energy efficiency from TRINAMIC’s coolStep™
technology cost for power consumption is kept down. The TMCL firmware allows for both standalone and
direct mode operation.
