INFO The TMCM-342 is a triple axis stepper motor controller module
for external power drivers with step / direction interface. With
its very small size it is dedicated to embedded applications,
where de-centralized high power drivers are desired. The board
can be connected to a baseboard or customized electronics
with a pin connector. The TMCM-342 comes with the PC based
software development environment TMCL-IDE for the Trinamic
Motion Control Language (TMCL). Using predefined TMCL high
level commands like „move to position“ or „constant rotation“
rapid and fast development of motion control applications is
guaranteed. The TMCM-342 can be controlled via the serial UART
interface (e.g. using a RS-232 or RS-485 level shifter), via CAN or
optinal via USB. Communication traffic is kept very low since all
time critical operations, e.g. ramp calculation, are performed on
board. The TMCL operations can be stored in the on board
EEPROM for stand-alone operation. An optional firmware allows
to control the TMCM-342 via CANopen. The firmware of the
module can be updated via the serial or via CAN interface.
