TB6600 usually supports current range from 0.5A to 4.0A. Just make sure your NEMA 17 stepper motor's current requirements are within this range and you can use the TB6600 driver module to drive it. When using the drive module, make sure to set the current and microstep settings correctly to get the best performance and avoid overheating the motor.
JaneYu Well this is super late but I'll point out for others that the user guide is on the product wiki page. https://dfimg.dfrobot.com/n...
JaneYu I'm a little new to this but shouldn't the controller and the motor driver share a common ground? There doesn't seem to be one in the wiring guide on this page or the wiki.
JaneYu The controller don't have to share ground with the motor.
You could think the motor driver as a relay module.
Hello, just a question: want to buy the TB6600 arduino Stepper Motor Driver also the driver will be powered up by power supply 24[Vdc] max Output current from the power supply 6[Amps]. Is this fine for the stepper driver? Thank you
JaneYu Hi, The introduction says that TB6600 compatible with Arduino and other microcontrollers that can output a 5V digital pulse signal, where as according to specifications, Control Signal is 3.3~24V. I am thinking to operate it with ESP8266 module that provide 3.3V digital pulse only. Will ESp8266 work with this driver?
Thank youm,
JaneYu Yes, but you need to add "D" before the pin number in the sample code.
I don't know the specific structure of the motor that you use, you can refer to the relevant characteristics of the motor in the wiki we give.
JaneYu Hello,
Do you know if this TB6600 controller works for a 6-wire stepper motor? If so, how should I connect the wires?
My stepper motor has these characteristics:
Bipolar, Unipolar Stepper Motor 1.8°, 0.83Nm, 7.4 V dc, 1 A, 6 Wires
I would really appreciate your help.
Thank you!
JaneYu My motors were 6 wire unipolar.
Yeah, they will work with the TB6600. Took me a while to riddle it out ha.
I am using TB6600 as stepper motor driver for controlling NEMA 17 stepper motor. There are two LEDs (red and Green)on the board. In my case red LED is always on. In most of the videos I watched about this driver in youtube, green led is on. I am not understanding this difference. Please help
JaneYu Do you mean that the working voltage of your stepping motor is 3.9V? To drive a stepping motor, it normally depends on the starting current which should be much larger than the working current, the voltage is good, but if you mean the input voltage for the motor driver, it should be 9-42V
