TMCM-3212

Stepper Motor Controller [&] Driver 3x 3A/48V with USB/CAN/RS485

TMCM-32xx is a family of premium 3-axes stepper motor controller/driver module for 2-phase bipolar stepper motors. It is highly integrated, offers a convenient handling and can be used in many decentralized applications.

The TMCM-3212 supports up to 3 bipolar stepper motors with up to 2.8A RMS coil current and supply voltages up to +48V DC nominal. There are separate motor and reference/end switch connectors as well as incremental encoder (a/b/n) connectors for each motor.

Communication can take place via RS485, CAN or USB interfaces. The module offers 4 general purpose inputs (analog or digital) and 4 general purpose outputs for various application possibilities. The TMCL™ firmware allows for both, standalone operation and direct mode.

With the most recent stepper control technologies as coolStep™, dcStep™, stallGuard2™, and stealthChop™ TMCM-32xx-family is the leading edge of open loop stepper motor controllers.

TMCM-3212 is available with the easy to use TMCL™ , or with the industry standard CANopen protocol.
