Trinamic Motion Control GmbH & Co. KG, a leading supplier of semiconductors, electronics and mechatronic solutions in the fields of motor and motion control, is proud to announce the arrival of a new family of high-performance semiconductor components for stepper motor control. The TMC2208-LA and TMC2224-LA are monolithic components with integrated circuit breakers for up to 1.2A RMS, and optimal power controllers for noiseless, sinusoidal control of the motor phases. Above all, both components were designed with the goal of easy application in mind. Trinamic will present the drives to the public at Electronica 2016, in Hall A4 at booth 513.
"Developers are under increasing pressure to shorten development cycles and bring new products on the market faster," explains Michael Randt, founder and CEO of Trinamic. "Our new family of drivers has been specially developed to help make the development process as short and as simple as possible."
Enhanced by the flexible microPlyer interpolater unit, the components offer a resolution of up to 256 microsteps-per-full-step to achieve perfect sinusoidal control - even with low-resolution motion controllers. Further development of Trinamic's stealthChop technology, which was introduced two years ago, has all but eliminated motor noise at low speeds, making the precise control of stepper motors not only possible, but affordable for application in environments that demand absolute silence, e.g. office buildings and residential areas.
Due to the immense popularity of stealthChop technology, the components have been designed for compatibility with existing 3D printer electronics. With stealthChop there is no need for costly redesign.
Both components feature a step/direction source for fully autonomous operation. Configuration is achieved via digital inputs.
The components will be available at a price of USD 1.22 at quantities of 1000 as a QFN28 (5x5) package in the first quarter of 2017. To accelerate the design process, Trinamic offers complete end-to-end evaluation kits. The development boards are open-source hardware and freely available for use as a reference design.

Does Muscle Composition Identify High-Risk Individuals in Chronic Kidney Disease? New AMRA Medical Study Says Yes, Reveals Strong Link to Mortality23.4.2026 17:10:00 CEST | Press release
AMRA Medical researchers recently set out to answer the question: what is the relationship between adverse muscle composition (AMC) and mortality in kidney disease? Recent findings demonstrate that AMC, characterized by low muscle volume z-score and high muscle fat infiltration, is an independent and strong predictor of all-cause mortality in individuals with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The findings, published in Clinical Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, were based on data from the UK Biobank imaging study and further reinforce the clinical relevance of MRI-derived muscle biomarkers in identifying high-risk populations across chronic diseases. This press release features multimedia.
