TMC248-LA DATASHEET (Rev. 1.01 / 2013-MAR-26)
8
The stallGuard signal sensitivity curves show the reaction of the TMC248 to the stallGuard signal taken
from measuring the motor. A certain stray occurs within the TMC248, but the resulting curve is
monotonously. Typically, the curve for a certain device has a certain offset. For high values above 2,
the percentage of the stray is relatively low, so that a motor reaching these values allows safe stall
detection.
