Writing Endless Lines of Code Is a Thing of the Past
What came first… technologies resulting in shorter development cycles, or the need to shorten development cycles resulting in those technologies? Of course, the question doesn’t matter as much as the ongoing result: a technological revolution “that will fundamentally alter the way we live, work, and relate to one another. In its scale, scope, and complexity, […]

Explore and tune StallGuard2 with the TMC5160-EVAL + Arduino Mega 2560 in step and direction mode
In this blog article we wire up a Arduino Mega2560 with a TMC5160-EVAL board to run in it STEP/DIR mode, use a timer to generate a fixed frequency for the STEP input. The diagnostic diag0 output pin of the TMC5160 will be used to indicate a defined load condition we want to react on. In […]

TL-Smoothers, do they make sense?
So, after our first blog post, which you can read here, Watterott kindly pointed out to us that our post didn’t make sense, so we looked at TL-Smoothers for 3D printers again. Turns out, our explanation of TL-Smoothers doesn’t apply to TL-Smoothers, since these small boards don’t use freewheeling diodes. Instead – and to our […]
