TMC 5160HV

Basic Parameters

  • Input voltage: 12V-48V
  • Maximum current: 4.4A
  • Suitable for: Marlin/Klipper/RRF firmware
  • Drive mode support: TMC: SPI
  • Stepper/direction interface with microstepping interpolation microPlyer
  • Highest resolution of 256 microsteps
  • Supports stealthChop2 silent operation and smooth motion
  • Supports resonance suppression for mid-frequency resonance
  • Supports spreadCycle high-dynamic motor control chopper
  • Supports dcStep load-related speed control
  • Supports stallGuard2 high-precision sensorless motor load detection
  • Supports coolStep current control, up to 75% energy savings

Motherboard Jumper Instructions

  • TMC5160 uses SPI jumper
  • The SPI pin for FLY driver is the fourth pin from the left downwards, and the CS pin is the SPI pin. If the motherboard does not correspond to the pin position, SPI cannot be used

TMC5160 Reference Configuration

dangerous
  • The drive sampling resistor is sense_resistor: 0.075, please do not set it incorrectly
  • spi_bus and spi_software can only choose one

Infinite Position Usage Instructions

Infinite Position Usage Tips
  • Infinite position usage requires occupying a limit port; normally, the first drive position uses IO1, the second drive position uses IO2, and so on.
  • When using infinite positions, please ensure not to connect anything to the corresponding limit port.
  • For some FLY mainboards that are directly connected to the drive port, please check if DIAG is directly connected to the corresponding pin.
Infinite Position Usage Tips
  • The original endstop_pin: needs to be shielded or deleted, and add endstop_pin: tmc5160_stepper_x:virtual_endstop
  • After configuring diag1_pin:, the limit status is not triggered
  • Configuring driver_SGT: requires you to test a suitable value yourself
  • Reference Configuration
[stepper_x]
# endstop_pin:PF3
endstop_pin: tmc5160_stepper_x:virtual_endstop
homing_retract_dist: 0 # Retraction without changing to 0 may cause homing failure

[tmc5160 stepper_x]
diag1_pin: ^!
driver_SGT: 1

# After configuration, please ensure that the limit status is not triggered
# This pin usually uses the "^" prefix to enable internal pull-up
# Sensitivity is related to belt tightness and needs to be adjusted by yourself
# (Ensure that driver_SGTHRS is also set to a suitable sensitivity)
