  • TL-Smoothers, do 3D printers really need them?

    NOTE: This blog post deals with freewheeling diodes, not with actual TL-Smoothers. For more info on TL-Smoothers, please visit our other blog post here. There is a debate going on in the 3D printing community whether or not to use TL-Smoothers. These little modules can be added to stepper motors of 3D printers, offering recovery […]

  • Driving Stepper Motors with the new TMC5160 by using TRINAMIC’s API on a Raspberry Pi

    Trinamic's TMC5160-BOB setup

    This start-up guide explains how to connect your Raspberry Pi 3 to the TMC5160-BOB – the breakout board of the brand new TMC5160. We’ll be using the internal Motion Controller and +3V3 logic supply for the TMC5160. The wiring will be limited to the basic functionality to communicate via SPI. The usage of the TRINAMIC’s API […]

  • How to drive a stepper motor via UART with your Arduino Mega using a TMC5072-EVAL

    Today we show how to connect TRINAMIC’s TMC5072-EVAL via Single Wire UART to an Arduino Mega for basic operation. The wiring is limited to the basic functionality to communicate via Single Wire UART. Preperation To use the 5V version of the Arduino MEGA you have to resolder Resistor from position R3 to R8. This enables […]

  • How to drive a stepper motor with your Raspberry Pi 3/2 using a TMC5130-EVAL

    In this start up guide you get explained how to connect your Raspberry Pi 3 or 2 for the basic operation of the TMC5130-EVAL board. It will use the internal Motion Controller and +3V3 logic supply for the TMC5130. The wiring will be limited to the basic functionallity to communicate via SPI. The internal CLK […]

  • How to drive a stepper motor with your Arduino Mega using a TMC5130-EVAL

    Only a few wires including an SPI port are required to control TMC5130-EVAL with your Arduino. Here are the few steps required to get started. Preparation If your Arduino  is a 5V type you have to resolder one resistor on the TMC5130-EVAL from position R3 to R8. This sets the logic level of the TMC5130 to +5V. While by default […]

  • First print from TRAMS 3D-Printer Shield

    For some weeks now we are working on our TRAMS 3D-printer shield – TRAMS is  a derivative of the popolar RAMPS shield for Arduino Mega Boards. TRAMS is based on 4 TMC5130 cDriver –  a Stepper motor driver with integrated ramp controller, so it offloads the AVR and reduces interrupt load to 10% of the original load. TMC5130 […]
