This evaluation board is obsolete and no longer recommended.

TMC4671-TOSV-REF is an open source reference design for ventilators / respirator systems. It is a BDLC servo driver for voltages from +12V to +36V and motor RMS phase currents up to 6A. It offers a wide range of connectivity with its SBC connector in Raspberry Pi style, the addon board header for a standard or custom pressure sensor addon board, and general purpose I/O. Communication is via standard TTL UART or RS485 (when using the standard addon board TOSV-SENSOR-REF).

The TMC6100-EVAL allows you to explore all functions of the TMC6100-LA.

The TMC6100-EVAL-KIT is a set of one MCU board Landungsbruecke, two Eselsbruecke bridge boards, one TMC4671-EVAL motion controller board as well as one TMC6100-EVAL driver board.

In addition we recommend to use the USB adapter for real-time-monitoring interface (RTMI): USB-2-RTMI.

The EVAL-KIT + USB-2-RTMI allows for a quick and simple start within only minutes to make your motor turning, while still providing full access to all registers and full functionality and diagnostics.

For diagnosis, all signals between MCU and TMC6100 are accessible with probes on the bridge board. TMC6100-EVAL can be used with or without the Landungsbruecke MCU board.

All you need to get started is a power supply and ADI Trinamic's free and easy to use TMCL-IDE. This graphical user interface allows quick setup and supports the use of commands in direct mode, monitors real-time behavior visualized in graphs, and logs and stores data. All settings can simply be exported for your own firmware project.

The TMC4671+TMC6100 breakout board is a development board with the dedicated TMC4671 and TMC6100 chip. It is designed to give users the chance to rapidly prototype their applications - making it possible to immediately check how the motor performs with TMC chips while developing the application's software.
