Revolt is a dual 48 V compatible stepper motor driver add-on board. It is based on TMC5160.

Hardware connections

The Revolt add-on baord is designed to stack on top of the Recore A7 board. There are two dual row connectors on the Revolt board, but only one on Recore A7. This means that there is only a software enable/disable for the TMC5160 drivers. It is enabled by default. There is also no diag output from the drivers. Those are broken out on the two other rows and can be connected to pins on the MCU header or DBG header if sensorless homing is required.

Klipper config

This config is using stepper x and y as the high voltage drivers, typical of a core-xy printer setup for speed. This gives the option of having 4 Z-drives and two extruders, 8 steppers in total.
