It provides an SPI™ interface as well as the classical analog / digital control. A full set of protection and diagnostic features makes this device very rugged. It directly drives external MOSFETs for currents of up to 4A. (A list of compatible power MOSFETs is given within the datasheet.) This way it reaches an extremely high efficiency and allows driving of a high motor current without cooling measures even at high environment temperatures. With the new chip-scale QFN package a 4A motor driver can be realized on the size of a stamp! The high motor current makes this device ideal for miniaturized highly dynamic and high torque drive systems. The evaluation can be done with the TMC249 as the only difference is the additional stallGuard™ feature.
