/* We will initialize the TMC6300 motor driver with the sensorless operation feature, and use stallGuard for stall detection. We will also enable features like spreadCycle, stealthChop, and coolStep, and configure some related parameters. In this example, the driver is set up in sensorless mode. It checks for stalls every loop, and if it detects a stall, it will stop the motor, wait for a second, and then try to restart the motor. Remember that the parameters used here are just examples and you should adjust them to suit your motor's needs. Always check the datasheets and technical documents for your specific motor and driver to make sure you're setting safe and appropriate values. You can find the documentation for the TMC6300 library here: https://www.trinamic.com/fileadmin/assets/Products/ICs_Documents/TMC6300_Datasheet_V100.pdf This code was written for the Arduino platform. If you're using a different platform or microcontroller, you may need to adjust the code to suit your needs. Always remember to be cautious when working with motors, as they can draw high currents that could damage your driver, motor, or microcontroller. This code assumes the library for TMC6300 from Trinamic is installed, which contains all the necessary methods and definitions to communicate with the driver and control the motor. It's also assumed you're using the SPI interface. */ #include #include // Define pins #define PIN_MOSI 11 #define PIN_MISO 12 #define PIN_SCK 13 #define PIN_CS 10 // Instantiate a TMC6300 instance TMC6300Stepper driver(PIN_CS); void setup() { // Initialize SPI SPI.begin(); SPI.setClockDivider(SPI_CLOCK_DIV4); // Initialize driver driver.begin(); // Enable and configure sensorless operation driver.S2VSA(3); // Set sensorless amplifier voltage gain (1-3) driver.S2VSB(3); // Set sensorless blanking time (1-3) // Set stall detection parameters driver.sgFilter(1); // StallGuard filter enable driver.sgThreshold(5); // StallGuard threshold // Enable features driver.stealthChop(1); // Enable stealthChop driver.spreadCycle(1); // Enable spreadCycle // Configure coolStep (assumes the driver is in coolStep mode) driver.lowerSgThreshold(1); // Lower StallGuard threshold for coolStep driver.SGTHRS(1); // Set coolStep threshold driver.semin(5); // Minimum coolStep current driver.semax(2); // Maximum coolStep current driver.sedn(0b01); // coolStep current decrement speed driver.seup(0b01); // coolStep current increment speed // Set the motor to run at 1000 RPM driver.VACTUAL(1000); } void loop() { // Check for a stall if (driver.sgResult() < driver.sgThreshold()) { Serial.println("Motor stall detected!"); driver.VACTUAL(0); // Stop the motor delay(1000); driver.VACTUAL(1000); // Try to restart the motor } }
