TB6600 stepper driver Ramps 1.4 connection Hey, I need some help with connecting TB6600 stepper driver into Ramps 1.4 board. TB6600 signal inputs are following and these are taken from the picture above. ENA- / EN- DIR- / CW- PUL- / CLK- +5v / +5v Enable: ENA- goes Ramps 1.4 stepper driver pin EN ? Direction: DIR- goes to DIR ? So where PUL- and +5v goes? Here's the picture of this TB6600 Thank you for your answers in advance! https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,624489,624489#msg-624489 Fri, 06 Mar 2026 01:13:15 -0500 Phorum 5.2.23 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,624489,709511#msg-709511 Re: TB6600 stepper driver Ramps 1.4 connection https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,624489,709511#msg-709511

Just wired it to a Arduino board directly so you can write your own code, that will allow you to control the pulse length. It would also allow you to test if the EN must be high or low to enable the driver.

I used a TB6560 without any problems.

Hi Frans, would you be able to share your coding as you stated ..."you can write your own code, that will allow you to control the pulse length..."

i am interested to see what i have to do to upgrade to a bigger stepper but not changing the Ramps board...

Merci bien!]]> Bobyni Reprappers Fri, 23 Sep 2016 17:21:07 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,624489,709463#msg-709463 Re: TB6600 stepper driver Ramps 1.4 connection https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,624489,709463#msg-709463 stephenrc Reprappers Fri, 23 Sep 2016 12:35:44 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,624489,709413#msg-709413 Re: TB6600 stepper driver Ramps 1.4 connection https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,624489,709413#msg-709413 www.pibot.com] ) to ramps1.4.
I think the enable is inverted since it only works with enable disconnected .... any way to fix this in marlin ?

I enabled "#define CONFIG_STEPPERS_TOSHIBA" in the firmware didnt see any change....
any ideas?]]> pwave Reprappers Fri, 23 Sep 2016 08:02:54 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,624489,627131#msg-627131 Re: TB6600 stepper driver Ramps 1.4 connection https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,624489,627131#msg-627131

Here's picture of my TB6600, there's no + and - signal inputs like other tbs have, only - inputs and that one +5v. I get my ramps on Monday so it is either going to work or it's going to smoke. That roboforum.ru link seems to be very helpful.

Those - signal inputs all goes to three different components before going to Toshiba driver and some chinese instructions that come with the driver says something like this:
5.CLK-：Stepping pulse input+5V (Rising edge effective , rising edge duration >10μS)
6.CW-：Stepping motor direction input, voltage level touched off, high level foreward , low level reverse
7.ENA-: motor free
8. +5V: Signal common terminal


I post my results here on Monday.]]> norkator Reprappers Sat, 13 Feb 2016 08:31:37 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,624489,624964#msg-624964 Re: TB6600 stepper driver Ramps 1.4 connection https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,624489,624964#msg-624964 roboforum.ru] or [andre.team9.99.org.nz]]]> Frans@France Reprappers Thu, 11 Feb 2016 12:13:48 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,624489,624512#msg-624512 Re: TB6600 stepper driver Ramps 1.4 connection https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,624489,624512#msg-624512 norkator Reprappers Wed, 10 Feb 2016 13:09:27 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,624489,624501#msg-624501 Re: TB6600 stepper driver Ramps 1.4 connection https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,624489,624501#msg-624501 bryanandaimee Reprappers Wed, 10 Feb 2016 13:01:56 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,624489,624489#msg-624489 TB6600 stepper driver Ramps 1.4 connection https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?4,624489,624489#msg-624489
TB6600 signal inputs are following and these are taken from the picture above.
ENA- / EN-
DIR- / CW-
PUL- / CLK-
+5v / +5v

Enable: ENA- goes Ramps 1.4 stepper driver pin EN ?
Direction: DIR- goes to DIR ?

So where PUL- and +5v goes?

Here's the picture of this TB6600
