The TMCM-6212 is a sextuple axis stepper motor controller/driver module for sensorless load dependent current control. The device is powered by ADI Trinamic StallGuard2™, CoolStep™, SpreadCycle™, StealthChop™ and DcStep™ technology and has a SixPoint™ ramp generator. The TMCM-6212 is capable of driving up to 1.5A peak of current from each output (with proper heatsinking). It is designed for an operating voltage of 11 to 35V. The device provides a RS485, CAN, USB and 6 encoder interfaces. An integrated protocol processor supplies a high level TMCL/ CANopen communication.
All you need to get started is a power supply and ADI Trinamic's free and easy to use TMCL-IDE. This graphical user interface allows quick setup and supports the use of commands in direct mode, monitors real-time behavior visualized in graphs, and logs and stores data.
