Hi. I'm controlling a k40 laser cutter with grbl-lpc installed on an mks sbase v1.3 board. I'm using lightburn software and everything is working great but he driver chips on the mks sbase board are noisy. I would like to upgrade to the TMC2130 or TMC2208 drivers so I can use the stealthchop mode. I would also like to use the sensorless functions and remove the endstop switches. Does GRBL-LPC support stealthchop and the SPI functions on the TMC2130? Do I need to compile grbl-lpc myself to use these functions or is the mks sbase firmware able to read from the TMC2130 chips?

The SBase board is only supported as is. Change of TMC drivers or settings via SPI are not intended.
If you would like to play with TMC2130 you should check out bdring/Grbl_Esp32#108.
