Stepper Motor Driver up to 3A with TB6560

Description

Based on the TB6560AHQ chip, this compact driver can control a single bipolar stepper motor with a max current of 3 A (3.5 A peak). It uses a circuit that allows the motor to run smoothly while minimizing noise and vibration. It provides high torque even at very high operating speeds. Via its DIP switch, you can select an output current between 0.3 A and 3 A and one of 6 motor control modes: full step, 1/2 step, 1/4 step, 1/8 step, 1/16 step, and 1/32 step. It features an aluminum heat sink, 6N137 optocoupler inputs, and operating settings printed directly on the PCB. Power supply: 10 V to 24 V.

Suitable for use in X-Y-Z tables, labeling machines, laser cutting, engraving machines, pick-and-place devices, etc.

Warning! To avoid burning the driver, do not exceed the specified voltage values.
