S-shaped ramp and SixPoint ramp motion controller for stepper motors with SPI and Step/Dir interfaces, and an encoder interface

The TMC4361 is a stepper motor servo controller with S-shaped ramps for laboratory automation, 3D-printing, scanners and other automated equipment applications. The device is usable as a trapezoidal and advanced SixPoint™ ramp generator. Furthermore the TMC4361 is powered by ADI Trinamic DcStep™, closed loop control and ChopSync™ technology. The device is designed for an operating voltage of 3.3V or 5V. The TMC4361 provides a SPI controller and SPI, S/D driver interface. Additionally it has an a/b/n incremental, SPI and SSI encoder interface.
