MC860X Two-phase 86 Series Stepper Driver

Product Overview

The MC860X is a classic two-phase 86 stepper driver, mainly used to drive 86-type two-phase hybrid stepper motors. It offers 16 microstepping subdivisions, with a maximum step count of 51200 pulses per revolution; its operating peak current range is 2.4A to 7.2A, with 8 output current levels and a current resolution of approximately 0.6A. It features automatic half-current, overvoltage, and overcurrent protection functions. This driver supports both AC and DC power supply, with a recommended operating voltage range of 18V-80VAC and 24-110VDC.

Driver Function Description

Driver Functions	Operating Instructions
Operating Current Setting	Set by SW1-SW3 three DIP switches to set the driver output current, which has 8 levels. For specific output current settings, please refer to the driver panel instructions.
Automatic Half-Current Function	Users can set the driver's automatic half-current function through SW4 . OFF means the static current is set to half of the dynamic current, ON means the static current is the same as the dynamic current. Generally, it is recommended to set SW4 to OFF to reduce the heat generated by the motor and driver and improve reliability. After the pulse train stops, the current automatically reduces after about 0.3 seconds. 50% (Actual value 55% ), theoretically reducing heat generation by 65%。
Microstep Subdivision Setting	Set by SW5-SW8 Four DIP switches are used to set the driver's microstep subdivision, with a total of 16 levels of microstep subdivision. When setting the subdivision, the driver should be stopped first. For specific microstep subdivision settings, please refer to the driver panel instructions.
Indicator Lights	The driver has two indicator lights: red and green. The green light is the power indicator, which stays on when the driver is powered; the red light is the fault indicator, which stays on when overvoltage or overcurrent faults occur. The red light turns off after the fault is cleared. When a fault occurs, only power cycling and re-enabling can clear the fault.
Signal Interface	PUL+ and PUL- are the positive and negative terminals of the control pulse signal; DIR+ and DIR- are the positive and negative terminals of the direction signal; ENA+ and ENA- are the positive and negative terminals of the enable signal.
Motor Interface	A+ and A- connects to the stepper motor A phase winding positive and negative terminals; B+ and B- connects to the stepper motor B phase winding positive and negative terminals. Swapping the two-phase windings can reverse the motor direction. A 、 B When the two-phase windings are swapped, the motor direction reverses.
Power Interface	Powered by DC power supply, operating input voltage range: 24V-110VDC or 18V-80VAC, recommended input voltage greater than 48VDC , power supply power greater than 300W.
Installation Instructions	Driver dimensions are: 150×97.5×52.6mm , mounting hole distance is 138.5mm . It can be installed horizontally or vertically (vertical installation is recommended). During installation, it should be tightly attached to a metal cabinet to facilitate heat dissipation.
