I want to buy Gimbal 12V motors with encoders AS5048A. Could you clarify whether or not it is possible to connect these two electromotors to an Arduino controller board to control them at the same time? We need two motors working synchronically by short impulses. We need to accelerate them synchroni…

[image] B: What if we just discharge a 24V battery down to about 12V to use two 12V motor drivers That will not be reliable and isn’t good for the battery either. If you use the sparkfun driver, it has a maximum voltage of 11 volts, you need a voltage regulator that can drop the voltage to a…

Hello TS-Russell. You wrote above: “Applying GND should put it into STANDBY mode and reset the device according to the datasheet https://docs.sparkfun.com/SparkFun_Three_Phase_Motor_Driver-TMC6300/component_documentation/TMC6300.pdf ” Could you please specify how long (approximately) it takes to rese…

It doesn’t say - but in the past I’ve seen a range usually between 0.1 and 1 second (I have seen up to 3 seconds) for this kind of thing …you should be able to test it fairly simply by applying GND and timing it

Hi TS-Russell. I have questions about the Vcp and SEN pins of the motor-driver SparkFun Brushless Motor Driver - 3-Phase (TMC6300) - SparkFun Electronics . 1. Could you please clarify for what the Vcp pin is needed? 2. What shunt resistor should be connected to the SEN pin? Thank you.

You really need to read the datasheet (s)… [image] Pg 6 has shunt info

Thank you, TS-Russell. I read. We will use the 9V 5A step-down voltage regulator Pololu - 9V, 5A Step-Down Voltage Regulator D42V55F9 to power the two SparkFun 12V 3-Phase BLDC motors via the two SparkFun motor-drivers SparkFun Brushless Motor Driver - 3-Phase (TMC6300) - SparkFun Electronics . The…

Hello TS-Russell. Could you please specify what wires your gimbal 12V 3-Phase BLDC motor encoder AS5048A board has? Please see photo attached. Thank you. [20260106_122232]

[image] U, V, W…they are arbitrarily named, these represent the 3 phases. All of this info is available without needing direct forum posts/replies - please, please, please go through the materials we have made available I/O Pins - Hardware Overview - Hookup Guide - TMC6300 BLDC Motor Dr…

Dear TS-Russell, I am sorry. I do not ask about the motor-driver in my last post. I ask about the motor encoder wiring, please see photo in my last post. Could you please specify each wire of the encoder? Thank you.

Thank you, PaulZC. Three wires are soldered to the encoder board, please see the attached photo in my previous post. How to solder all the other pins? All the other pins are two small and non-standard. Thank you.
