The TMC5160 is a high power stepper motor controller and driver IC with serial communication interfaces. It combines a flexible ramp generator for automatic target positioning with industries’ most advanced stepper motor driver. Using external transistors, highly dynamic, high torque drives can be realized. Based on ADI Trinamic's sophisticated SpreadCycle™ and StealthChop™ choppers, the driver ensures absolutely noiseless operation combined with maximum efficiency and best motor torque. High integration, high energy efficiency and a small form factor enable miniaturized and scalable systems for cost effective solutions. The complete solution reduces learning curve to a minimum while giving best performance in class. TMC5160-WA uses a wettable flank package to allow optical inspection of the soldering joints.
Applications:
- Robotics & Industrial Drives
- Textile, Sewing Machines
- Packing Machines
- Factory & Lab Automation
- High-speed 3D Printers
- Liquid Handling
- Medical
- Office Automation
- CCTV
- ATM, Cash Recycler
- Pumps and Valves

TMC5160-EVAL
Evaluation Board for TMC5160
Product Detail
The TMC5160-EVAL allows you to explore all functions of the TMC5160-TA.
The TMC5160-EVAL-KIT is a set of one MCU board Landungsbruecke, an Eselsbruecke bridge board and one TMC5160-EVAL driver board. It allows for a quick and simple start within only minutes to make your motor turning, while still providing full access to all registers and full functionality and diagnostics.
For diagnosis, all signals between MCU and TMC5160 are accessible with probes on the Eselsbruecke bridge board. To simplify the transfer to your own processor platform the MCU board can be disconnected.
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. All settings can simply be exported for your own firmware project.
