Whatever the application is, start the design easily using Trinamic's evaluation boards and kits. Each EVAL KIT gives the customer direct access to all registers using Trinamic's own software, allowing the customer to develop their own firmware. Besides as an EVAL KIT, the TMC5160 is also available as a breakout board. This BOB contains everything that is needed for rapid prototyping and can be used on a breadboard or with flying wires, as all sensitive signals such as sense lines are routed on the BOB itself. Moreover, the BOBs are open-source, meaning the customer can copy the design and tweak it to their own specific needs.
