Product Details

The TMC4361A-EVAL allows you to explore all functions of the TMC4361A-LA motion controller. Used in the TMC4361A-EVAL-KIT, which is a set of one Landungsbruecke interface board, an Eselsbruecke connector board and one TMC4361A-EVAL board, it allows for a quick and simple start 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 TMC4361A are accessible with probes on the Eselsbruecke bridge board. To simplify the transfer to your own processor platform the MCU board can be disconnected. For use with an encoder, please connect VIO to encoder supply, as visualized in the schematics.

As the TMC4361A-EVAL uses the SPI interface of the Eselsbruecke and Landungsbruecke, it's best to combine this motion controller with one of the driver evaluation boards like the TMC23x, TMC24x, TMC26x, or TMC21x0-EVAL for quick testing and setup.

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.

TMCL-IDE
Short for Trinamic Motion Control Language-Integrated Development Environment, the TMCL-IDE is an integrated development environment made for developing applications using ADI Trinamic™ modules and chips. The GUI provides tools for easily setting parameters, for visualizing data in real-time, and for developing and debugging stand-alone applications with TMCL.
