TMC2209 is a stepper motor driver chip from German firm Trinamic that I suspect folk interested in the insides of 3D printers will be hearing a lot more about in the near future. In many printers, the ...

The Toshiba TC78H670FTG two-phase, bipolar, stepper-motor driver removes the need for any external current-sense resistor by incorporating on-chip current detection. It’s often desirable or even ...

The Stepper 28 Click smart stepper controller board and support tools simplify development of motorized systems used in ...

Alllegro MicroSystems, LLC rolled out a new 40 V motor driver IC capable of driving one stepper motor and one DC motor. The stepper driver outputs are rated up to 1.6 A and the DC driver at 3.2 A.

There are a few 32-bit ARM-based 3D printer controller boards out there such as the Smoothieboard, the Azteeg X5 mini, [Traumflug]’s Gen5 electronics, whatever board is in the Monoprice MP Mini Select ...

For his entry into the 2019 Hackaday Prize, [Tobius Daichi] is working on adding some motion control capabilities to everyone’s favorite Linux SBC. His 3+Pi board attaches to the Raspberry Pi’s GPIO ...

Medium-sized cnc machines, which I am defining as those using NEMA 23 and 24 motors, need about 5A per stepper, usually mandating separate driver modules alongside a control board. However, 3d printer ...
