BEST PERFORMANCE
The TMC260 and the TMC261 score with power density, integrated power MOSFETs, and a versatility that
covers a wide spectrum of applications and motor sizes, all while keeping costs down. Extensive support at
the chips, board, and software levels enables rapid design cycles and fast time-to-market with competitive
products. High energy efficiency from TRINAMIC’s coolStep technology delivers further cost savings in
related systems such as power supplies and cooling.

VALUATION
&
DEVELOPMENT PLATFORM
This evaluation board is a development
platform for applications based on the
TMC260, TMC261, and TMC262.
Supply voltages are 8… 40V DC (TMC260) and
8… 60V DC (TMC261 and TMC262).
The
board
features
an
embedded
microcontroller with USB and RS232 interfaces
for communication. The control software
provides a user-friendly GUI for setting control
parameters and visualizing the dynamic
responses of the motors.
Motor movements can be controlled through
the step/direction interface using inputs from
an external source or signals generated by the
TMC429 motion controller acting as a step
generator.
