2.2 Position Controller / Main Control
Motor parameters, e.g. acceleration, velocity and p osition parameters are passed to the main control block via the serial interface. These information a re stored internally in RAM or OTP memory and are accessible by the position controller. This block t akes over all time critical tasks to drive a steppe r motor to the desired position under abiding the desired motion parameters. The main controller gets feedback from the stepper motor driver block and is able to arrange internal actions in case of possible problems. Diagnostics i nformation about problems and errors are transferred to the serial interface block.
2.3 Stepper Motor Driver
Two H-bridges are employed to drive both windings o f a bipolar stepper motor. The internal transistors can reach an output current of up to 800 mA. The PW M principle is used to force the given current through the coils. The regulation loop performs a c omparison between the sensed output current and the internal reference. The PWM signals to drive th e power transistors are derived from the output of the current comparator.
2.4 Two Wire Serial Interface
Communication between a host and the TMC222 takes p laces via the two wire bi-directional serial interface. Motion instructions and diagnostics info rmation are provided to or from the Main Control block. It is possible to connect up to 32 devices o n the same bus. Slave addresses are programmable via OTP memory or an external pin.

5 Functional Description
5.1 Position Controller and Main Controller
5.1.1 Stepping Modes
The TMC222 supports up to 16 micro steps per full s tep, which leads to smooth and low torque ripple motion of the stepping motor. Four stepping modes ( micro step resolutions) are selectable by the user (see also Table 11):
- Half step Mode
- 1/4 Micro stepping
- 1/8 Micro stepping
- 1/16 Micro stepping
5.1.2 Velocity Ramp
A common velocity ramp where a motor drives to a de sired position is shown in the figure below. The motion consists of a acceleration phase, a phase of constant speed and a final deceleration phase. Both the acceleration and the deceleration are symm etrical. The acceleration factor can be chosen from a table with 16 entries. (Table 5: Acc Paramet er on page 11). A typical motion begins with a star t velocity Vmin. During acceleration phase the veloci ty is increased until Vmax is reached. After acceleration phase the motion is continued with vel ocity Vmax until the velocity has to be decreased i n order to stop at the desired target position. Both velocity parameters Vmin and Vmax are programmable, whereas Vmin is a programmable ratio of Vmax. (See Table 3: Vmax Parameter on page 10 and Table 4: Vmin on page 11). The user ha s to take into account that Vmin is not allowed to change while a motion is ongoing. Vmax is only allo wed to change under special circumstances. (See 5.1.4 Vmax Parameter on page 10). The peak current value to be fed to each coil of th e stepper-motor is selectable from a table with 16 possible values. It has to be distinguished between the run current Irun and the hold current Ihold. I run is fed through the stepper motor coils while a moti on is performed, whereas Ihold is the current to ho ld the stepper motor before or after a motion. More details about Irun and Ihold can be found in 5.3.1. and 5.3.2. Velocity resp. acceleration parameters are accessab le via the serial interface. These parameters are written via the SetMotorParam command (see 6.8.9) a nd read via the GetFullStatus1 command (see 6.8.1). time [s] Velocity V [FS/s] Vmax Vmin Xstart Xtarget No Movement Acceleration Phase Constant Velocity Deceleration Phase No Movement State of Motion

5.1.3 Examples for different Velocity Ramps
The following figures show some examples of typical motions under different conditions: time Velocity V Vmax Vmin Xstart Xtarget_2 Xtarget_1 Figure 2: Motion with change of target position time Velocity V Vmax Vmin Xstart Xtarget_2 Xtarget_1 Figure 3: Motion with change of target position while in deceleration phase time Velocity V Vmax Vmin Xstart Xtarget Figure 4: Short Motion Vmax is not reached time Velocity V Vmax Vmin Xstart Xtarget_2 Xtarget_1 Figure 5: Linear Zero crossing (change of target position in opposite direction) The motor crosses zero velocity with a linear shape . The velocity can be smaller than the programmed Vmin value during zero crossing. Linear zero crossi ng provides very low torque ripple to the stepper motor during crossing.

5.1.4 Vmax Parameter
The desired maximum velocity Vmax can be chosen from the table below: Vmax index Vmax [FS/s] Vmax group Stepping Mode Half-Step Mode [half-steps/s] 1/4 micro stepping [micro-steps/s] 1/8 micro stepping [micro-steps/s] 1/16 micro stepping [micro-steps/s] 0 99 A 197 395 790 1579 1 136 B 273 546 1091 2182 2 167 334 668 1335 2670 3 197 395 790 1579 3159 4 213 425 851 1701 3403 5 228 456 912 1823 3647 6 243 486 973 1945 3891 7 273 C 546 1091 2182 4364 8 303 607 1213 2426 4852 9 334 668 1335 2670 5341 10 364 729 1457 2914 5829 11 395 790 1579 3159 6317 12 456 912 1823 3647 7294 13 546 D 1091 2182 4364 8728 14 729 1457 2914 5829 11658 15 973 1945 3891 7782 15564 Table 3: Vmax Parameter Under special circumstances it is possible to chang e the Vmax parameters while a motion is ongoing. All 16 entries for the Vmax parameter are divided i nto four groups A, B, C and D. When changing Vmax during a motion take care that the new Vmax va lue is within the same group. Background: The TMC222 uses an internal pre-divider for positioning calculations. Within one group the pre-divider is equal. When changing Vmax between different groups during a motion, correct positioning is not ensured anymore.

5.1.5 Vmin Parameter
The minimum velocity parameter is a programmable ra tio between 1/32 and 15/32 of Vmax. It is also possible to set Vmin to the same velocity as Vmax b y setting Vmin index to zero. The table below shows the possible rounded values of Vmin given within unit [FS/s].

5.1.7 Position Ranges
Position information is coded by using two’s comple ment format. Depending on the stepping mode (See 5.1.1) the position ranges are as listed in the following table: Stepping Mode Position Range Full range excursion Half-stepping -4096…+4095 (-212 …+2 12 -1) 8192 half-steps 213 1/4 micro-stepping -8192…+8191 (-213 …+2 13 -1) 16384 micro-steps 214 1/8 micro-stepping -16384…+16383 (-214 …+2 14 -1) 32768 micro-steps 215 1/16 micro-stepping -32768…+32767 (-215 …+2 15 -1) 65536 micro-steps 216 Table 6: Position Ranges Target positions can be programmed via serial inter face by using the SetPosition command (see
5.1.8 Secure Position
The GotoSecurePosition command drives the motor to a pre-programmed secure position (see 6.8.4). The secure position is programmable by the user. Se cure position is coded with 11 bits, therefore the resolution is lower than for normal positioning commands, as shown in the following table. Stepping Mode Secure Position Resolution Half-stepping 4 half steps 1/4 micro stepping 8 micro steps (1/4 th ) 1/8 micro stepping 16 micro steps (1/8 th ) 1/16 micro stepping 32 micro steps (1/16 th ) Table 7: Secure Position Resolution
5.1.9 External Switch SWI
Pin SWI (see Figure 1, on page 7) will attempt to s ource and sink current in/from the external switch pin. This is to check whether the external switch i s open or closed, resp. if the pin is connected to ground or Vbat. The status of the switch can be rea d by using the GetFullStatus1 command. As long as the switch is open, the <ESW> flag is set to zero. The ESW flag just represents the status of the inpu t switch. The SWI input is intended as a physical interface for a mechanical switch that requires a c leaning current for proper operation. The SWI input detects if the switch is open or connected either t o ground or to Vbat. The SWI input is not a digital logic level input. The status of the switch does no t automatically perform actions as latching of the actual position. Those actions have to be realized by the application software. Important Hint: The SWI is not a logic level input as usual; it ne eds to be connected via 1K resistor either to +VBAT or GND;

5.1.10 Motor Shutdown Management
The TMC222 is set into motor shutdown mode as soon as one of the following condition occurs:
- The chip temperature rises above the thermal shutd own threshold T tsd . See 5.1.12 Temperature Management on Page 15
- The battery voltage drops below UV2 See 5.1.13 Bat tery Voltage Management on Page 16.
- An electrical problem occurred, e.g. short circuit , open circuit, etc. In case of such an problem fla g <ElDef> is set to one.
- Chargepump failure, indicated by <CPFail> flag set to one. During motor shutdown the following actions are performed by the main controller:
- H-bridges are set into high impedance mode
- The target position register TagPos is loaded with the contents of the actual position register ActPos. The two-wire-serial-interface remains active during motor shutdown. To leave the motor shutdown state the following conditions must be true:
- Conditions which led to a motor shutdown are not a ctive anymore
- A GetFullStatus1 command is performed via serial i nterface. Leaving the motor shutdown state initiates the following
- H-bridges in Ihold mode
- Clock for the motor control digital circuitry is e nabled
- The charge pump is active again Now the TMC222 is ready to execute any positioning command. IMPORTANT NOTE: First, a GetFullStatus1 command has to be executed after power-on to activate the TMC222.

5.1.11 Reference Search / Position initialization
A stepper motor does not provide information about the actual position of the motor. Therefore it is recommended to perform a reference drive after powe r-up or if a motor shutdown happened in case of a problem. The RunInit command initiates the refere nce search. The RunInit command consists of a Vmin and Vmax parameter and also position informati on about the end of first and second motion (6.8.8 RunInit). A reference drive consists of two motions (Figure 6 : RunInit): The first motion is to drive the motor into a stall position or a reference switch. The first m otion is performed under compliance of the selected Vmax and Vmin parameter and the acceleration parame ter specified in the RAM. The second motion has got a rectangular shape, without a acceleration phase and is to drive the motor out of the stall position or slowly towards the stall position again to compensate for the bouncing of the faster first motion to stop as close to the stall position as po ssible. The maximum velocity of the second motion equals to Vmin. The positions of Pos1 and Pos2 can be chosen freely (Pos1 > Pos2 or Pos1 < Pos2). After the second motion the actual position registe r is set to zero. Finally, the secure position will be traveled to if it is enabled (different from the most negative decimal value of –1024). Once the RunInit command is started it can not be i nterrupted by any other command except a condition occurs which leads to a motor shutdown (S ee 5.1.10 Motor Shutdown Management) or a HardStop command is received. Furthermore the maste r has to ensure that the target position of the first motion is not equal to the actual position of the stepper motor and that the target positions of the first and the second motion are not equal. This is very important otherwise the circuit goes into a deadlock state. Once the circuit finds itself in a deadlock state only a HardStop command followed by a GetFullStatus1 command will cause the circuit to leave the deadlock state.

5.1.12 Temperature Management
The TMC222 provides an internal temperature monitor ing. The circuit goes into shutdown mode if the temperature exceeds threshold T tsd , furthermore two thresholds are implemented to gen erate a temperature pre-warning. Low Temperatur <Tinfo> = "01" <TW> = '0' <TSD> = '0' Normal Temp. <Tinfo> = "00" <TW> = '0' <TSD> = '0' Thermal Warning <Tinfo> = "10" <TW> = '1' <TSD> = '0' Post Thermal Warning <Tinfo> = "00" <TW> = '1' <TSD> = '0' T° > Tlow T° < Tlow Thermal Shutdown <Tinfo> = "11" <TW> = '1' <TSD> = '1' SoftStop , if motion Motion = disabled Post Thermal Shutdown 1 <Tinfo> = "10" <TW> = '1' <TSD> = '1' Motion = disabled Post Thermal Shutdown 2 <Tinfo> = "00" <TW> = '1' <TSD> = '1' Motion = disabled T° > Ttw T° > Ttsd T° < Ttw T° > Ttw T° < Ttsd T° > Ttsd T° < Ttw T° > Ttw T° < Ttw & GetFullStatus1 T° < Ttw & GetFullStatus1

5.1.13 Battery Voltage Management
The TMC222 provides an internal battery voltage mon itoring. The circuit goes into shutdown mode if the battery voltage falls below threshold UV2, furt hermore one threshold UV1 is implemented to generate a low voltage warning. Normal Voltage <UV2> = '0' <StepLoss> = '0' Motion = enabled Low Voltage <UV2> = '0' <StepLoss> = '0' Motion = enabled Stop Mode 2 <UV2> = '1' <StepLoss> = '1' HardStop Motion = disabled Stop Mode 1 <UV2> = '1' <StepLoss> = '0' Motion = disabled Vbat < UV1 Vbat > UV1 Vbat < UV2 (Motion) Vbat < UV2 (no Motion) Vbat > UV1 & GetFullStatus1 Vbat > UV1 & GetFullStatus1

5.1.14 Internal handling of commands and flags
The internal handling of commands and flags differs . Commands are handled with different priorities depending on the current state and the current stat us of internal flags, see figure below. SetPosition or GotoSecurePosition commands are ignored as long as the <StepLoss> flag is set. Details can be found in Table 8: Priority Encoder. Note : A HardStop command is sent by the master or trigg ered internally in case of an electrical defect or over temperature. A description of the available commands can be foun d in 6.8 Command Description. A list of the internal flags can be found in 5.2.2 Status Flags. As an example: When the circuit drives the motor to its programmed target position, state “GotoPos” is entered. There are three events which can cause to leave this state: HardStop command received, SoftStop command received or target position reache d. If all three events occur at the same time the HardStop command is executed since it has the highe st priority. The Motion finished event (target position reached) has the lowest priority and thus will only cause transition to “Stopped” state when both other events do not occur.

Table 8: Priority Encoder Color code: Command ignored Transition to another state Master is responsible for proper update (see note 5) Notes: 1 After Power on reset, the Shutdown state is entered . The Shutdown state can only be left after a GetFu llStatus1 command (so that the Master could read the <VddReset> flag). 2 A RunInit sequence runs with a separate set of RAM registers. The parameters which are not specified i n a RunInit command are loaded with the values stored in RAM at the moment the RunInit sequence starts. AccShape i s forced to ‘1’ during second motion even if a ResetToDefault c ommand is issued during a RunInit sequence, in whic h case AccShape at ‘0’ will be taken into account after th e RunInit sequence. A GetFullStatus1 command will return the default parameters for Vmax and Vmin stored in RAM. 3 Shutdown state can be left only when <TSD> and <HS> flags are reset. 4 Flags can be reset only after the master could read them via a GetFullStatus1 command, and provided th e physical conditions allow for it (normal temperature, correct battery voltage and no electrical or charge pump defect). 5 A SetMotorParam command sent while a motion is ongo ing (state GotoPos) should not attempt to modify Ac c and Vmin values. This can be done during a RunInit sequ ence since this motion uses its own parameters, the new parameters will be taken into account at the next SetPosition command. 6 <SecEn> = ‘1’ when register SecPos is loaded with a value different from the most negative value (i.e. different from 0x400 = “100 0000 0000”)

Thi s transition has the lowest priority, meaning that <Stop>, <TSD>, etc. are first evaluated for possible transitions. 9 If <StepLoss> is active, then SetPosition and GotoS ecurePosition commands are ignored (they will not m odify TagPos register whatever the state) and motion to secure position is forbidden. Other commands like RunInit or ResetPosition will be executed if allowed by current state. <StepLoss> can only be cleared by a GetFullStatus1 command.
5.2 RAM and OTP Memory
Some RAM registers (e.g. Ihold, Irun) are initializ ed with the content of the OTP (One Time Programmable) memory. The content of RAM registers that are initialized via OTP can be changed afterwards. This allows user initialization default values, whereas the default values are one time programmable by the user. Some OTP bits are address bits of the TMC222.

5.2.3 OTP Memory Structure
The table below shows where the OTP parameters are stored in the OTP memory. Note: If the OTP memory has not been programmed, or if th e RAM has not be programmed by a SetMotorParam command, or if anyhow <VddReset> = ‘1’, any positioning command will be ignored, in order to avoid any consequence due to unwanted RAM content. Please check that the correct supply voltage is applied to the circuit before zapping th e OTP (See: Table 21: DC Parameters Supply and Voltage regulator on page 45), otherwise the circuit will be destroyed.

These might vary between dif ferent components. These bits (gray within Table 9 : OTP Memory Structure) should not be used after re adout. Each OPT bit is at ‘0’ when not zapped. Zapping a bit will set it to ‘1’. Thus only bits having to be at ‘1’ must be zapped. Zapping of a bit already at ‘1’ is disabled, to avoid any damage of the Zene r diode. It is important to note that only one sing le OTP byte can be programmed at the same time (see command SetOTPParam). Once OTP programming is completed, bit LOCKBG can b e zapped, to disable unwanted future zapping, otherwise any OTP bit at ‘0’ could still be zapped. Lock bit Protected byte LOCKBT (zapped before d elivery) 0x00 to 0x01 LOCKBG 0x02 to 0x07 Table 10 : OTP Lock bits The command used to load the application parameters via the serial bus into the RAM prior to an OTP Memory programming is SetMotorParam. This allows fo r a functional verification before using a SetOTPParam command to program and zap separately o ne OTP memory byte. A GetOTPParam command issued after each SetOTPParam command allows to verify the correct byte zapping.

5.3.2 Transition Irun to Ihold
At the end of a motor motion the actual coil curren ts Irun are maintained in the coils at their actual DC level for a quarter of an electrical period (two ha lf steps) at minimum velocity. Afterwards the curre nts are then set to their hold values Ihold. The figure below illustrates the mechanism: t i I = I run I = I hold Figure 12: Transition Irun to Ihold Both currents Irun and Ihold are parameterizeable u sing the command SetMotorParam. 16 values are available for Irun current and 16 values for Ihold current.

5.3.3 Chopper Mechanism
The chopper frequency is fixed as specified in chap ter 10.4 AC Parameters on page 46. The TMC222 uses an intelligent chopper algorithm to provide a smooth operation with low resonance. The TMC222 uses internal measurements to derive current flowin g through coils. If the current is less than the desired current, the TMC222 switches a H-bridge in a way that the current will increase. Otherwise if the current is too high, the H-bridge will be switc hed to decrease the current. For decreasing two modes are available, slow decay and fast decay, whereas fast decay decreases the current faster than slow decay. The figure below shows the chopper behavior. Figure 13: Different Chopper Cycles with Fast and Slow Decay

6 Two-Wire Serial Interface
6.1 Physical Layer
Both SDA and SCL lines are connected to positive su pply voltage via a current source or pull-up resistor (see figure below). When there is no traff ic on the bus both lines are high. Analog glitch fi lters are implemented to suppress spikes with a length of up to 50 ns. SDA line SCL line TMC222 SCL_IN SCL_OUT SDA_IN SDA_OUT Master SCL_IN SCL_OUT SDA_IN SDA_OUT + 5V Figure 14: Two Wire Serial Interface - Physical Layer
6.2 Communication on Two Wire Serial Bus Interface
Each datagram starts with a Start condition and end s with a Stop condition. Both conditions are unique and cannot be confused with data. A high to low tra nsition on the SDA line while SCL is high indicates a Start condition. A low to high transition on the SDA line while SCL is high defines a Stop condition (see figure below). SDA SCL START condition STOP condition Figure 15: Two Wire Serial Interface - Start / Stop Conditions The SCL clock is always generated by the master. On every rising transition of the SCL line the data on SDA is valid. Data on SDA line is only allowed to change as long as SCL is low (see figure below). SDA SCL data line stable, data valid data change allowed Figure 16: Two Wire Serial Interface - Bit transfer
26 TMC222 DATASHEET (V. 1.12 / March 7, 2011) Copyright © 2004-2011 TRINAMIC Motion Control GmbH & Co. KG Every byte put on the SDA line must have a length o f 8 bits, where the most significant bit (MSB) is transferred first. The number of bytes that can be transmitted to the TCM222 is restricted to 8 bytes. Each byte is followed by an acknowledge bit, which is issued by the receiving node (see figure below). SDA SCL 1 2 7 8 9 9 1 START condition STOP condition MSB ACK ACK Figure 17: Two Wire Serial Interface - Data Transfer
6.3 Physical Address of the circuit
The circuit must be provided with a physical addres s in order to discriminate this circuit from other ones on the serial bus. This address is coded on se ven bits (two bits are internally hardwired to ‘1’) , yielding the theoretical possibility of 32 differen t circuits on the same bus. It is a combination of four OTP memory bits (see Table 9 : OTP Memory Structure ) and one hardwired address bit (pin HW). HW must either be connected to ground or Vbat. When HW is not connected and left floating correct functionality of the serial interface is not guaranteed. Pin HW uses the same principle to check whether it is connected to ground or Vbat like the SWI input (see 5.1.9 External Switch). The TMC222 supports a “general call” address. There fore the circuit is addressable using either the physical slave address or address “000 0000”. Physical address OTP Memory Hardwired Bit (Connect to 0 or 1) OTP_AD3 OTP_AD1 OTP_AD2 OTP_AD0 '1' '1' AD5 AD6 AD1 AD2 AD3 AD4 AD0 HW2 Figure 18: Two Wire Serial Interface - Physical Address resp. Address Field With un-programmed OTP address bits (OTP_AD3=o, OTP _AD2=o, OTP_AD1=o, OTP_AD0=o) and HW='0' (pin HW @ GND), the slave address resp. the address field of the TMC222 for reading is 11oooo01 (0xC1, 193) and for writing the slave addr ess resp. the address field is 11oooo00 (0xC0, 192). The LSB of the address field selects read (=' 1') and write (='0'). With un-programmed OTP address bits and HW='1' (pin HW @ Vbat), the slave address resp. the address field of the TMC222 for reading is 11oooo11 (0xC3, 195) and for writing the salve address resp. the address field is 11oooo10 (0xC2, 194). Important Hint: The HW is not a logic level input as usual; it nee ds to be connected via 1K resistor either to +VBAT or GND;
6.4 Write data to TMC222
A complete datagram consists of the following: a St art condition, the slave address (7 bit), a read/wr ite bit (‘0’ = write, ‘1’ = read), an acknowledge bit, a number of data bytes (8 bit) each followed by an acknowledge bit, and a Stop condition. The acknowle dge bit is used to signal to the transmitter the correct reception of the preceding byte, in this case the TMC222 pulls the SDA line low. The TMC222 reads the incoming data at SDA with ever y rising edge of the SCL line. To finish the transmission the master has to transmit a Stop cond ition. Some commands for the TMC222 are supporting eight bytes of data, other commands are transmitting two bytes of data.

6.5 Read data from TMC222
When reading data from a slave two datagrams are ne eded. The first datagram consists of two bytes of data. The first byte consists of the slave addre ss and the write bit. The second byte consists of t he address of an internal register of the TMC222. The internal register address is stored in the circuits RAM. The second datagram consists of the slave addr ess and the read bit. Then the master can read the data bits on the SDA line with every rising edg e of the SCL line. After each byte of data the mast er has to acknowledge correct data reception by pullin g SDA low. The last byte must not be acknowledged by the master so that the slave knows the end of transmission (see figure below).

6.8.4 GotoSecurePosition
This command is provided by the Master to one or al l the stepper-motors to move to the secure position SecPos[10:0]. It can also be triggered at the end of a RunInit initialization phase. If SecPos[10:0] equals 0x400 (the most negative decima l value of -1024) the secure position is disabled and the GotoSecurePosition command is ignored.

1 GotoSecurePosition 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0
6.8.5 HardStop
This command is internally triggered when an electr ical problem is detected in one or both coils, leading to switch off the H-bridges. If this proble m is detected while the motor is moving, the <StepLoss> flag is raised allowing to warn the Mast er that steps may have been lost at the next GetFullStatus1 command. A HardStop command can also be issued by the Master for some safety reasons. HardStop command Byte Content Structure bit 7 bit 6 bit 5 bit 4 bit 3 bit 2 bit 1 bit 0
1 HardStop 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 1
6.8.6 ResetPosition
This command is provided to the circuit by the Mast er to reset ActPos and TagPos registers, in order to allow for an initialization of the stepper-motor position. Hint : This command is ignored during motion. It has no effect during motion. The Status Flags (section 5.2.2, page 20) named 'Motion Status' indicate if the motor is at rest (velocity=0).

6.8.7 ResetToDefault
This command is provided to the circuit by the Mast er in order to reset the whole slave node into the initial state. ResetToDefault will for instance overload the RAM with the reset state of the register parameters. This is another way for the Master to i nitialize a slave node in case of emergency, or simply to refresh the RAM content. Note: ActPos is not modified by a ResetToDefault command , and it’s value is copied into TagPos register in order to avoid an attempt to position the motor to ‘0’.

6.8.8 RunInit
This command is provided to the circuit by the Mast er in order to initialize positioning of the motor by seeking the zero (or reference) position. Refer to 5.1.11 Reference Search / Position initialization o n page 14. It leads to a sequence of the following commands:
- SetMotorParam(Vmax, Vmin);
- SetPosition(Pos1);
- SetMotorParam(Vmin, Vmin);
- SetPosition(Pos2);
- ResetPosition
- GotoSecurePosition Once the RunInit command is started it can not be i nterrupted by any other command except when a condition occurs which leads to a motor shutdown (S ee 5.1.10 Motor Shutdown Management) or a HardStop command is received. If SecPos[10:0] equal s 0x400 (the most negative decimal value of -1024) the final travel to the secure position is omitted. The master has to ensure that the target position o f the first motion is not equal to the actual position of the stepper motor and that the target positions of the first and second motion are different, too. This is very important otherwise the circuit goes into a deadlock state. Once the circuit is in deadlock st ate only a HardStop command followed by a GetFullStatus 1 command will cause the circuit to leave the deadlock state.

6.8.9 SetMotorParam
This command is provided to the circuit by the Mast er to set the values for the following stepper moto r parameters in RAM:
- coil peak current value (Irun)
- coil hold current value (Ihold)
- maximum velocity for the Stepper-motor (Vmax)
- minimum velocity for the Stepper-motor (Vmin)
- acceleration shape (AccShape)
- stepping mode (StepMode)
- direction of the Stepper-motor motion (Shaft)
- acceleration (deceleration) for the Stepper-motor (Acc)
- secure position for the Stepper-motor (SecPos) If SecPos[10:0] is set to 0x400 (the most negative decimal value of –1024) the secure position is disabled and the GotoSecurePosition command is ignored. SetMotorParam command Byte Content Structure bit 7 bit 6 bit 5 bit 4 bit 3 bit 2 bit 1 bit 0

6.8.10 SetOTPParam
This command is provided to the circuit by the Mast er in order to zap the OTP memory. The OTPA address (OTPA) addresses the OTP word (please refer section 5.2.3, page 21) within the OTP Memory structure. The Pbit byte represents the bit pattern to be programmed, where a one programs an un-programmed OTP bit. For example, if one wants to OTP the defaults to Irun := 0xD and Ihold = 0x5, one has to execute the SetOTPParam with OTPA = 0x03 and Pbit := 0xD5. Those OTP bits that are un-programmed can be programmed to '1' by corre sponding Pbit chosen as '1' . For OTP the supply voltage Vbat has to be within the valid range specified as VbbOTP within Table 21, page 45.

6.9 Positioning Task Example
The TMC222 has to perform a positioning task, where the actual position of the stepper motor is unknown. The desired target position is 3000 µsteps away from position 0. See figure below. X [µsteps] Stop Actual Position unknown Target Position = 3000 Position 0 Figure 22: Positioning Example: Initial situation The following sequence of commands has to be sent t o the slave in order to complete the scenario described above (assumed after power on): GetFullStatus1 The command is used to read the current status of t he TMC222. Electrical or environmental problems will be reported, furthermore the circuit leaves th e shutdown state and is ready for action. See 6.8.1 GetFullStatus1 on page 30. GetFullStatus2 The circuit will enter a deadlock state if the actu al position corresponds to the first target position of the RunInit command. This command is used to read the a ctual position. The master must take care that both positions are containing different values. For deadlock conditions see 5.1.11 Reference Search / Position initialization on page 14. SetMotorParam In order to drive the stepper motor with a desired motion parameters like torque, velocity, aso. the SetMotorParam command must issued. See 6.8.9 SetMotorParam on page 34. RunInit Hence the actual position is unknown, a position in itialization has to be performed. The first motion must drive the stepper motor into the stop for sure . The second motion is a very short motion to bring the motor out of the stop. The actual position is t hen set to zero automatically after the second moti on is finished. See 6.8.8 RunInit on page 33. After reference search the situation is as depicted in the figure below. Actual position of the steppe r motor corresponds to zero, the target position is 3000 µsteps away from the actual position. X [µsteps] Stop Actual Position = 0 Target Position = 3000 Figure 23: Positioning Example: Situation after reference search Now the positioning command SetPosition can be issu ed in order to drive the stepper motor to the desired position.
TMC222 DATASHEET (V. 1.12 / March 7, 2011) 37 Copyright © 2004-2011 TRINAMIC Motion Control GmbH & Co. KG SetPosition This command will cause the stepper motor to move t o the desired target position. See 6.8.11 SetPosition on page 35. After the motion has been f inished, the situation is as depicted in the figure below. X [µsteps] Stop Actual Position = Target Position = 3000 Figure 24: Positioning Example: Motion finished Afterwards the actual status and position can be ve rified by GetFullStatus1 and GetFullStatus2 commands. The master can check if a problem, caused by electrical or temperature problems, occurred. Furthermore the actual position is read.

7 Frequently Asked Questions
7.1 Using the bus interface
Q: How many devices can be operated on the same bus? A: 32 devices can be discriminated by means of the physical address. However, it depends on some factors if this high number really makes sense. Fir st of all it has to be checked if each device can b e serviced under any circumstances in the maximum all owed time taking the bus speed and the individual real-time requirements of each device in to account. Second, the idea of reserving address 0 for OTP physical address programming during system installation and defective parts replacement reduces the number to 30. Q: How to program the OTP physical address bits of a device if there are more devices connected to the same bus? A: The problem here is that all new devices are shi pped with the OTP physical address bits set to zero making it difficult to address just one device with the SetOTPParam command. Use HW input as chip select line to address just one device by SetOTPPar am. If this is impractible since the HW input is hardwired or not controllable for any other reason the only alternative is to assemble and program one device after the other. I.e., assemble only first d evice and program the desired non-zero address, the n assemble the second device and program the desired non-zero address, and so on until all devices are assembled and programmed. This is also a good servi ce concept when replacing defective devices in the field: The idea is that all devices are program med to different non-zero physical addresses at production/installation time. Once a defective devi ce is being replaced the replacement part can easil y be addressed by SetOTPParam since it is the only part with physical address zero.
7.2 General problems when getting started
Q: What is the meaning of ElDef? A: The ElDef flag (‘Electrical Defect’) is the logical ORing of the OVC1 and OVC2 flags. OVC1 is set t o one in case of an overcurrent (coil short) or open load condition (selected coil current is not reache d) for coil A. OVC2 is the equivalent for coil B. Q: What could be the reason for ElDef / OVC1 / OVC2 being set to one? A: There are a number of possible causes:
- Motor not connected ( /barb2right open load)
- Connected motor has shorted coils ( /barb2right overcurrent) or broken coils ( /barb2right open load)
- Motor coils connected to the wrong device pins
- Selected coil current can not be reached ( /barb2right open load) due to high coil impedance or low supply voltage. Solution: Select a lower coil run/h old current or rise the supply voltage. Generally: the calculated voltage required to reach a desired coil current at a given coil resistance (V = I • R) must be significantly lower than actual supply voltage due to the coil inductivity. Q: Should the external switch be normally closed or open when the reference position is hit? A: The SWI input resp. the ESW flag have neither ef fect on any internal state machine nor on command processing, even not on the RunInit command . ESW must be polled by software using GetFullStatus1 command. The software can simply be adapted to whatever state the switch is in when the reference position is hit, i.e. closed or open.

7.3 Using the device
Q: What is the meaning of the ‘Shaft’ bit? A: The Shaft bit determines the rotating direction of the motor, i.e. clockwise or counter-clockwise rotation. Q: How to generate an interrupt when the target position is reached? A: This is not possible. The device hasn’t any inte rrupt output at all. Just poll ActPos or Motion[2:0 ] using an appropriate command. Q: How can I ensure that I always get consistent data for ActPos and ESW? A: There isn’t a single command to read both ActPos and ESW simultaneously. GetFullStatus1 will read ESW whereas GetFullStatus2 will read ActPos. T hus it is not possible to read consistent values as long as a motion is in progress. Q: How to specify a second target position to go to immediately after a first target position has been reached? A: This is possible using the RunInit command. Note , that after the second target position has been reached the internal position counter ActPos is reset to zero. Q: Is it possible to change Vmax on-the-fly? A: Yes, it is, if the new velocity is in the same g roup as the old one (see Vmax Parameters). Otherwis e correct positioning is not ensured anymore. Vmax values are divided into four groups:
- group A: Vmax index = 0
- group B: Vmax index = 1, 2, 3, 4 ,5 or 6
- group C: Vmax index = 7, 8, 9, 10 ,11 or 12
- group D: Vmax index = 13, 14 or 15 Q: Is it possible to change the stepping mode on-the-fly? A: Yes, it is possible and it has immediate effect on the current motion. Q: How to operate in continuous velocity mode rather than positioning (ramp) mode? A: There is no velocity mode. The device was design ed primarily for positioning tasks so for each motion there has to be specified a target position by the respective command. However, velocity mode can be emulated by repeating the following two commands again and again:
- Read ActPos using GetFullStatus2 command
- Set lower 16 bits of [ActPos+32767] as the next t arget position using SetPosition command For real continuous motion this sequence has to be repeated before the current target position has been reached. Q: Which units, formats and ranges does position information have? A: All 16-bit position data fields in commands and responses are coded in two’s complement format with bit 0 representing 1/16 micro-steps. Hence a p osition range of –32768…+32767 in units of 1/16 micro-steps is covered regardless of the selected s tepping mode (1/2, 1/4, 1/8 or 1/16 micro-stepping). The difference between the stepping modes is the re solution resp. the position of the LSB in the 16-bi t position data field: it’s bit 0 for 1/16, bit 1 for 1/8, bit 2 for 1/4 and bit 3 for 1/2 micro-steppin g. The position range can be regarded as a circle since po sition –32768 is just 1/16 micro-step away from position +32767. The device will always take the sh ortest way from the current to the target position, i.e., if the current position is +32767 and the tar get position is –32768 just 1/16 micro-step will be executed. 65535 1/16 micro-steps in the opposite di rection can be achieved for example by two consecutive SetPosition commands with target positions 0 and –32768. The 11-bit secure position data field can be treate d as the upper 11 MSBs of the 16-bit position data fields described above with the 5 LSBs hardwired to zero. Hence it covers the same position range with a reduced resolution: The position range is –1024…+ 1023 in units of two full-steps.

7.4 Finding the reference position
Q: How do I find a reference position? A: The recommended way is to use the RunInit comman d. Two motions are specified through RunInit. The first motion is to reach the mechanical stop. I ts target position should be specified far away enough so that the mechanical stop will be reached from any possible starting position. There is no internal stall detection so that at the end of the first motion the step motor will bounce against the mechanical stop loosing steps until the internal ta rget position is reached. The second motion then can be used either to drive in the opposite direction o ut of the mechanical stop right into the reference position which is a known number of steps away from the mechanical stop. Or the second motion can slowly drive a few steps in the same direction agai nst the mechanical stop to compensate for the bouncing of the faster first motion and stop as close to the mechanical stop as possible. Q: Can the SWI input help in finding a reference position? Not directly. The current state of the SWI input is reflected by the ESW flag which can only be polled using the command GetFullStatus1. The SWI input res p. the ESW flag have neither influence on any internal state machine nor on command processing. T he recommended way to find a reference position is to use the RunInit command. Alternative ly one could initiate a long distance motion at ver y low speed using SetPosition and then poll ESW as fr equently as possible to be able to stop the motion using HardStop right in the moment the switch posit ion is reached. Then one would reset the internal position counters ActPos and TagPos using the ResetPosition command. Q: What is the logic of the ESW flag? A: The ESW flag reflects the state of the SWI input . ESW is set to one if SWI is high or low, i.e. pul led to VBAT or to GND. ESW is set to zero if SWI is lef t open, i.e. floating. ESW is updated synchronously with ActPos every 1024 µs. Q: Is it possible to swap the logic of the ESW flag? A: No, it’s not. Actually this is not necessary sin ce the ESW flag must be polled and evaluated by software anyway. The state of ESW has neither effec t on any internal state machine nor on command processing. Q: What else is important for the RunInit command? A: The first target position of RunInit must be dif ferent from the current position before sending Run Init and the second target position must be different fr om the first one. Otherwise a deadlock situation ca n occur. During execution of RunInit only Get… comman ds should be sent to the device. Q: Does the second motion of RunInit stop when the ESW flag changes, or does it continue into the mechanical stop? A: Neither nor. The SWI input resp. the ESW flag ha ve neither effect on any internal state machine nor on command processing, i.e. the RunInit command is not influenced by SWI / ESW. The same is true for the mechanical stop: as there isn’t any internal stall detection the RunInit command can not detect a mechanical stop. When the mechanical stop is hit th e first or second motion of RunInit (or the motion of any other motion command) will be continued unti l the internal position counter ActPos has reached the target position of this motion. This results in the motor bouncing against the mechanical stop and loosing steps. The intention of the second motion o f RunInit is to drive out of the mechanical stop (reached by the first motion) to the desired reference position at a known distance from the mechanical stop or to drive slowly against the mechanical stop again to compensate for the bouncing of the first motion and to come to a standstill as close to the mechanical stop as possible. Q: Does RunInit reset the position? A: Yes, it does. After the second motion of RunInit has been finished the internal position counter ActPos is reset to zero.
