[Neumi] over on Hackaday.IO wanted a simple-to-use way to drive stepper motors, which could be quickly deployed in a wide variety of applications yet to be determined. The solution is named Ethersweep ...

The primary feature of stepper motors is listed right within their name: their ability to ‘step’ forwards and backwards, something which they (ideally) can do perfectly in sync with the input provided ...

Stepper motors are now being used more frequently in industrial environments. Increased performance and reduced size make them increasingly attractive, and their application is no longer limited to ...

The world is digital today, and most information is represented in numbers. However, human nature is more “analog” and information is better represented in the old-fashioned way, using pointer gauges ...

Mikroe has added a smart 85V 10A stepper motor driver to its range of interchangeable ‘Click’ boards. Called Power Step 2 Click, the board “is based on the powerSTEP01, a 1/128 microstepping ...

Different types of motors need different types of drivers. Requirements for a variety of applications. Selecting the right motor driver is crucial to achieving the required functionality and ...

The first installment of this two-part series focused on debugging brushed-DC motor systems. Now the second installment will share some tips for stepper motor systems and provide general bench testing ...
