TMC8100-EVAL-KIT

TMC8100-EVAL-KIT is an evaluation kit for the TMC8100 universal encoder bus controller. Connecting the TMC8100-EVAL to the Landungsbruecke PC interface board gives access to the graphical user interface TMCL-IDE and its fast development tools. The TMC8100 acts as a peripheral interface block to deliver the extracted and adjusted encoder position information to the microcontroller or the motion controller over SPI or UART. This is achieved by the programmable high-performance serial communication engine for synchronous and asynchronous data. The TMC8100-EVAL supports both absolute and incremental encoders. The encoder interfaces are supplied by the external supply of the TMC8100-EVAL. The TMC8100 is provided with a 16MHz clock source and an EEPROM for application code storage.

• Synchronous serial bus protocols support (SSI, SPI, BiSS-C, EnDat 2.X)
• Asynchronous serial bus protocols support, incremental A/B/Z encoder interface
• High-speed 25MHz SPI system interface
• High-speed 16Mbps UART system interface
• I2C programming interface
• Crystal oscillator or external clock with PLL
• Up to 128MHz internal system clock
• 3V to 5.5V single supply
• Operating temperature range from -40°C to +125°C
