Pinout

View from the top side (with MosFets). Further infos can be also found in the schematics PDF file.

v1.3 Pinout

TMC5160 v1.3 Pinout

Notes:

  • CLK has to be connected to GND on v1.3 to use the internal clock.

v1.4 Pinout

TMC5160 v1.4 Pinout

Hints:

  • The DCO pin is an output, keep attention that it is not connected to SDO, because some mainboards bridge these pins (also called SLP + RST).
  • To activate the motion controller the SD_MODE jumper has to be opened and the SD_MODE pin of the jumper has to be set to GND with a wire (SD_MODE=0). See Schematics.

v1.5 Pinout

TMC5160 v1.5 Pinout

Hints:

  • The DCO pin is an output, keep attention that it is not connected to SDO, because some mainboards bridge these pins (also called SLP + RST).
  • To activate the motion controller the SD_MODE jumper has to be opened. The SD_MODE pin has an external pull-down resistor (SD_MODE=0). See Schematics.
