In June 2026, we will be featuring the following product:

• 65V 2ARMS smart integrated stepper motor driver (with S/D and SPI)

Featured Product ①: TMC2241

Product Summary

The TMC2241 is a smart, integrated stepping motor driver with step and direction (S/D) control, SPI/UART communication interfaces, and a maximum output of 65V, 2A RMS. In addition to high-precision motor control with 256 microsteps, it features two 65V H-bridges (up to 3A peak) and lossless current sensing (ICS), enabling highly efficient motor drive with reduced external components.

Main features

• Supports high voltage operation up to 65V and 2A RMS output.
• High-precision positioning control with 256 microsteps.
- Supports step/direction (S/D) input and SPI/UART interfaces.
- Low-noise, high-efficiency control using StealthChop2 and SpreadCycle
- Sensorless load detection function by StallGuard
• CoolStep current optimization function (contributes to power saving)
- Built-in lossless current detection function (ICS)
• Small TQFN38 package: 5mm x 7mm
Operating voltage range: 4.5V to 65V

Design advantages

The TMC2241 simplifies system configuration in designs requiring stepper motor control in the following ways:
• Because it has a built-in lossless current detection function (ICS), a shunt resistor is not required, reducing the number of components.
- Sensorless load detection using StallGuard reduces the need for external sensors.
- Low-noise operation with StealthChop2 makes it suitable for use in equipment where quiet operation is required.
• Supports step/direction and SPI/UART interfaces, making it easy to integrate into existing systems.
