Overview

Features and Benefits

Applications
  • Baseboard / Evaluation board for TMCM-1630 and TMCM-1633
Electrical Data
  • Supply voltage: +24V DC or +48V DC nominal (+12 to +55V DC max.)
  • Motor current: up to 10A RMS peak
Interfaces
  • The interface connectors refer to the assembly options of the TMCM-163x:
    • RS232

    • RS485
    • USB (High-speed 12Mbit/s)
    The baseboard integrates all communication connectors. There are no assembly options. Please note: Functionality of communication interfaces depends on assembly options of TMCM-163x
Other
  • Separate connectors for interfaces, encoder, power supply, motor, and hall sensors
  • Potentiometers for analog inputs plus push-button for digital input (function depending on firmware)
  • ROHS compliant
  • Size: 120x90mm2
  • Accessibility

Product Details

The baseboard BB-163x allows to build a ready to use BLDC motor driver unit using the TMCM-1630 driver module or the TMCM-1633 driver module. It integrates velocity and torque (via current) control as well as a hall sensor based positioning mode. The position resolution depends on the motor, i.e. a standard 8 pole motor gives a motor axis resolution of 15 degrees.

The module can be used in stand alone operation or it can be remotely controlled via RS232, CAN, RS485 or USB (depending on the used module). All important signals and the power supply lines can be connected easily. For motor, power supply and hall sensors screw terminals are available and for the host interface dedicated connectors. The baseboard has two potentiometers to adjust torque and velocity. An incremental encoder can be attached at an 10-pin header connector.
