    CNC4PC Breakout Boards

    Hi.

    I am looking at buying a breakout board for 4 x Gecko G251's.

    The CNC4PC C11 looks like the good candidate in my case.

    My concern is,will it be able to drive 4 separate stepper drivers? (They say it has pin's 2 to 9 for output. Is that 2 pin's per driver?)

    Any insight into this issue will be greatly appreciated.

    Best Regards,
    Bert.

    Hi,
    Yes, the C11 will drive four drives directly. Two pins per drive, one for step and one for direction are available on the C11. On top of that you also have access to pin 1, 14, 16 and 17 which are shared between functions on the board such as the chargepump, relays and F/V converter for analog output and of course the 5 input pins for home switches etc.
