I have used EVAL6482H board to drive a stepper motor with a spec as followed,

Operating voltage: 2.5v

Rated current/ phase: 0.49A

Supply voltage: 20v

I set the parameter as followed

   Stepper.setParam(TVAL_HOLD, 0x02);

   Stepper.setParam(TVAL_RUN, 0x02);

   Stepper.setParam(OCD_TH, 0x08);

   Stepper.setParam(CONFIG, 0xF788);

   Stepper.setParam(GATECFG1, 0xC7);

   Stepper.setParam(GATECFG2, 0x61);

   Stepper.setParam(T_FAST, 0x47);

   Stepper.setParam(TON_MIN, 0x07);

   Stepper.setParam(TOFF_MIN, 0x1F);

However, the return value from getStatus is 0xE403 ( 1110 0100 0000 0011), which indicates the undervoltage lockout and the flag LED keep winkling.

Can anyone help me to find out the problem?? Thank you.

Grace

Dear Grace,

the configuration looks ok.

Please, consider the following:

- at power up the device always returns an UVLO failure

- after you change the VCC_VAL value from 7.5V to 15V there is a transition time required to assering the new supply voltages at the VCC and BOOT pins, during this period the UVLO failure is triggered

- Check if the BOOT and VCC voltages are ok.

Kind Regards

Enrico
