Re: MKS LV8729 , a 128 µStep Driver // Any test?

a lot of their advert is accurate information but glosses over important facts

lets hit the highlights shell we?

"Name: MKS LV8729"
Can't fault them on their choose for a name :)

"Overview
MKS LV8729 is a ultra quiet stepper motor driver, and good for Nema stepper motor whose current is less than 1.5A, which makes motor steady, quiet and precise."

That very low current, and later on they further cover their own butts with
"Default 0.8A,1.5A Max. Advise using 1.3A Max." so 1.3amps max in reality...

"Also, it does good work with MKS ROBIN, MKS GEN,MKS SBASE and RAMPS1.4 controller board on 3d printer, carving machine, CNC, etc."
This is only a half truth... over 1/32 micro stepping all 8 bit controllers like the ramps and MKS GEN cannot generate step pulses fast enough to be useful.
The 32 bit boards like MKS SBASE and MKS ROBIN should be fine with the higher stepper micro stepping rates.

So will it work yes*
*as long as you aren’t using the higher micro stepping features that make their board special, or your not using a 8 bit controller board.
