BIGTREETECH TMC5160T V1.0 – Stepper Motor Driver

Description

The stepper motor driver based on the Trinamic TMC5160-TA chip with external MOSFETs is designed for applications requiring high torque and precise control. It supports motor supply voltages from 8 V to 56 V DC (recommended up to 48 V) and an RMS current of up to 3 A (peak up to 4.4 A). It allows operation in SPI and Standalone (SD) modes with a resolution of up to 256 microsteps. Integrated features such as StealthChop2, SpreadCycle, StallGuard2, and CoolStep reduce noise, optimize energy consumption, and enable step loss detection. A finned aluminum heatsink improves thermal dissipation. The driver is compatible with BIGTREETECH mainboards such as Octopus Pro, SKR V1.4 Turbo, SKR 3, and Manta M5P/M8P. Designed for use in 3D printers, CNC machines, and other mechatronic systems.
