User Guide for 4 axis TB6560 driver board 

 

Product Features: 

  Toshiba TB6560AHQ chip - High power, maximum 3.5A drive current chipset ! 

  1-1/16 microstep setting - Higher accuracy and smoother operation than standard 1, 1/2 step!   

  Adjustable 1.5A-3A drive current settings for each axis - 25%,50%,75%,100% of full current can be set for 

different stepper motors   

  Overload, over-current and over-temperature safety - Full protection for your computer and peripheral 

equipment !   

  On board current switching - Power output can be set according to specific user requirement !   

  Full closed-type optical isolation to protect the user's computer and equipment   

  Relay spindle interface - Outputs Max. 36V 7.5A for spindle motors or coolant pump (only one device can be 

powered by this output!)   

  4 channel inputs interface- Can be used for XYZ limit and emergency stop !   

  Professional design - Two stage signal processing with super anti-jamming !   

  Bipolar constant current chopper drive with non-resonant region - Controls motors smoothly through range 

without creep effect !   

  Four control inputs (divided into pairs of knives) - Allows setting of limit and emergency stop !   

  Universal architecture - Supports most parallel software MACH3,KCAM4 etc!
