Trinamic TMC2300 sets standards for iot and portable devices

     TRINAMIC Motion Control Inc. has announced the world's smallest single-chip motor driver featuring patented StealthChop technology. The TMC2300 sets the standard for 2-phase stepper motors up to 1.2A RMS and 1.8V... With a voltage range of 11V DC, it requires only the lowest power consumption, so that people are not aware of the existence of a motor. From now on, you only need 1 or 2 lithium-ion batteries or 2 AA batteries to drive innovation.

     The lowest power consumption comes from Trinamic's cutting-edge StealthChop2 chopper and chip using extremely low resistance with an integrated charge pump. Combined with CoolStep for extended uptime and energy savings of up to 90%, the TMC2300 is ideal for iot and handheld devices, battery-powered devices, POS machines and printers, toys, office and home automation devices, including smart thermostatic radiator valves, micro-medical devices and many more applications

     Michael Randt, Founder and CEO of Trinamic, said: "Small motors are everywhere - they are increasingly entering our daily lives during the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Now is the time to accelerate the revolution by changing the way motors are used in portable devices. The TMC2300 is the world's smallest single-chip motor driver, which, in combination with StealthChop, StallGuard and CoolStep, allows for the lowest power consumption, allowing stepper motors to seamlessly integrate into the usage environment without compromising performance. Small size, but the perfect low-voltage solution for big innovation."

     The low-voltage stepper driver combines Trinamic's latest technology, such as StealthChop2™ and StallGuard4, to blend the stepper motor into its surroundings, eliminating the need for sensorless homing limit switches. This opens up new application scenarios for portable devices, including medical applications: their users don't want their little assistants to notice that they're using the most advanced technology. Since the TMC2300 does not compromise performance, it is also ideal for turning stationary devices into portable battery-powered devices that are easy to use.

     Trinamic's TMC2300 uses all the latest current control and diagnostic technologies to power stepper motors with battery voltages as low as 1.8V, enabling applications in smarter, more efficient, and completely silent battery-powered devices.
