Description
The EVAL6470PD demonstration board is a fully
integrated microstepping motor driver. In
combination with the STEVAL-PCC009V2
communication board and dSPIN evaluation
software, the board allows the engineer to
investigate all the features of the L6470 device. In
particular, the board can be used to check the
voltage mode driving and to regulate the L6470
parameters in order to fit the application
requirements. The 4-layer layout and the
PowerSO package allow the top thermal
performance to be obtained. The EVAL6470PD
supports the daisy-chain configuration making it
suitable for the evaluation of the L6470 in multimotor applications.
