ST has released a new evaluation board for a stepper motor driver.It’ll plug right into your 3D printer, and if you’re looking for a chip to build a cheap 3D printer controller board around ...

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 ...

Based on the Motorola (now Freescale) heavily used but obsolete SAA1042 stepper-motor-driver IC, this Design Idea describes a CPLD (complex-programmable-logic-device)-based implementation of a stepper ...

Despite the extensive use of EC motors, brushed motors haven’t been relegated to just ultra-low-end applications such as ...

This Design Idea further develops a previous one integrating a stepper-motor driver in a CPLD (Reference 1). However, this idea integrates not only the driver, but also a simple one-axis stepper-motor ...

It is small, at 1.6 inches (40 mm) square, and provides up to 2 amps drive current for one axis and up to 1 amp for the second, with an optional second stepper or bi-directional dc driver daughtercard ...

We’ve developed the SlushEngine which is a smart stepper motor driver that works with the Raspberry Pi and many other devices (ie. Beaglebone and Arduino).

The new I/O module controls stepper motors with Modbus/TCP, Ethernet/IP or PROFINET interface to host PC, PLC or PAC.

The α STEP AZ Series stepper motor driver offers superior high speed open loop performance with closed loop control. It incorporates a battery-free, absolute mechanical encoder for absolute-type ...

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 ...

The Stepstick and Pololu motor drivers are the heart of just about every Reprap electronics board, but they can go bad. The usual way of testing these things is to rig up a microcontroller on a bre… ...
