1. When you connect this stepper driver to any other motors, the same problem happens. Yes, we can conclude that stepper driver is broken. You have to replace with a new one. The GND of stepper driver must be connected to GND of mainboard, you can see "GND" both on stepper driver and board. Please contact the customer service.
2. From the video you post, when you move z axis, you set the value at 150 mm. The motor won't stop until it moves 150mm,even you set the value at 80 when it's moving. So when it reaches top, of course it jitters.
