Various motor drivers can be used on the Trigorilla (8 bit) mainboard. Among others the TMC2100, TMC2208, TMC2225 and TMC2209. I strongly recommend branded products and the TMC2208 drivers from [FYSETC](https://amzn.to/2QtHDnD), [MKS](https://amzn.to/3gpZy9t) or [ERYONE](https://amzn.to/3b1moDh). TMC2225 are only TMC2208 in a different housing. TMC2209 have a few nice features that can only be used with UART and another board. They run, but buying them would be wasted money. TMC2100 are the "old" ones. They work and are partly dirt cheap. They get a little hotter than the TMC2208, but do their job just as well.

I have had very bad experiences with BIGTREETECH, in which a driver of a package of 5 was often defective and short-circuited, so that the driver burned first and then the fuse on the board had to be replaced. In addition, these are often advertised as "V2" or "V3", which simply does not exist. The original versions of the TMC2208 SilentStepSticks are v1.0 (default Step/Dir version) or v1.2 (with UART support).

At first glance, the printer is frightening, but since the Chinese only cook with water, the content is really manageable. At the top right we find the mainboard to which everything is connected. The one on the left is the power supply. We keep our hands off that. At first glance, the printer is frightening, but since the Chinese only cook with water, the content is really manageable.
