Configuring TB6600

I have a Jk02-M breakout board and the HY-DIV268N driver. I have a Toshiba - TB6600HG.

I am looking at this Stepper Configuration Wizard and I wonder if somebody has been there and done that and can please help me fill out some of the fields in the wizard like step time, direction hold etc

Hi

The step timing info seems hard to come by but appears
5000
5000
20000
20000
should work

If you get any problems with movement increase the first 2 to 10000

These are basically the TB6560 with the new toshiba TB6600 chip, put in a box to look like the much more expensive and better Leadshine drivers

Be very careful not to exceed the max supply voltage or use them anywhere near the max rated amperage, V++ they go bang, A++ they can get very hot and fail.

There are other problems, this is an example

Mike ,
these toshiba chipsets are quite tolerant of range so the figures Arceye gave should get you working
you may even be able to get down to 3500 for step and direction comfortably , they will go lower but you'll hit intermittent problems

people take the miss conception that you need to set these to a specific number ,it's not critical to do so , and infact having them near to the max
as far as tuning goes can give more problems .

but as Arceye mentions the voltage supplied is far more critical , and they blow at the mere sight of going over the limit
i try to keep them at around 3 -5v lower than max capability and they will run fine

Thanks guys. I may have more questions.

Hi all, I have 5 of these units running a cnc router, the info I got from the distributor is as follows;

1. Supply Voltage: DC 9 ~ 42VDC
2. Max Input voltage: 48VDC
3. Operating Temperature: -10 to 45C
4. Storage temperature: -40 to 70C
5. Max Drive Current: 4A
6. Chopping Frequency: 20KHZ

The maximum frequency, duration and segmentation are related. Specifically in the 32 subdivision when the maximum frequency is 50KHz; 16 subdivision time 32KHz,
8 subdivision -16KHz ...
1 subdivision -2KHz.

The minimum step pulse duration corresponds to the subdivision, and the duty cycle is calculated as 50%. Can be calculated for the duration;

32 subdivided corresponding to the duration of 10us;
16 subdivision -2KHz-15.6us
1 subdivision -2KHz-250us

Hopefully this info is useful.

regards,

Paul.
