 * \class TMC26XStepper
 * \brief Class representing a TMC26X stepper driver
 *
 * To use one of these drivers in your code create an object of its class:
 * \code
 * TMC26XStepper tmc_stepper = TMC26XStepper(200,1,2,3,500);
 * \endcode
 * see TMC26XStepper(int16_t number_of_steps, int16_t cs_pin, int16_t dir_pin, int16_t step_pin, uint16_t rms_current)
 *
 * Keep in mind that you need to start the driver with start() in order to configure the TMC26X.
 *
 * The most important function is move(). It checks if the motor requires a step. It's important to call move() as
 * often as possible in loop(). I suggest using a very fast loop routine and always call move() at the beginning or end.
 *
 * To move you must set a movement speed with setSpeed(). The speed is a positive value, setting the RPM.
 *
 * To really move the motor you have to call step() to tell the driver to move the motor the given number
 * of steps in the given direction. Positive values move the motor in one direction, negative values in the other.
 *
 * You can check with isMoving() if the motor is still moving or stop it abruptly with stop().

For most low current drivers, a setting of 1 or 2 is good. For high current applications with large MOSFETs, a setting of 2 or 3 will be required. 0 (min setting) … (3) amx setting
     * \param fast_decay_time_setting Fast decay time setting. Controls the portion of fast decay for each chopper cycle. 0: slow decay only, 1…15: duration of fast decay phase
     * \param sine_wave_offset        Sine wave offset. Controls the sine wave offset. A positive offset corrects for zero crossing error. -3…-1: negative offset, 0: no offset,1…12: positive offset

     *
     * The classic constant off time chopper uses a fixed portion of fast decay following each on phase.
     * While the duration of the on time is determined by the chopper comparator, the fast decay time needs
     * to be set by the user in a way, that the current decay is enough for the driver to be able to follow
     * the falling slope of the sine wave, and on the other hand it should not be too long, in order to minimize
     * motor current ripple and power dissipation. This best can be tuned using an oscilloscope or
     * trying out motor smoothness at different velocities. A good starting value is a fast decay time setting
     * similar to the slow decay time setting.
     * After tuning of the fast decay time, the offset should be determined, in order to have a smooth zero transition.
     * This is necessary, because the fast decay phase leads to the absolute value of the motor current being lower
     * than the target current (see figure 17). If the zero offset is too low, the motor stands still for a short
     * moment during current zero crossing, if it is set too high, it makes a larger microstep.
     * Typically, a positive offset setting is required for optimum operation.
