Adjust the phase current, crank up the microstepping, and forget about it — that’s what most people want out of a stepper motor driver IC. Although they power most of our CNC machines and 3D printers, ...

grbl is stepper motor controller firmware for three-axis cnc machines, intended to run on Arduinos with a motor driver add-on board. Engineer in Wonderland cnc-related blogs are indexed here It is the ...

[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 ...

Makers, developers and Arduino enthusiasts searching for silent stepper drivers with high resolution encoders which are also Arduino compatible. May be interested in the new range of uStepper S line ...

The DRV8711 is a stepper motor gate driver with on-chip 1/256 micro-stepping indexer and stall detect. This device employs external N-channel MOSFETs to drive a bipolar stepper motor or two brushed DC ...

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 ...

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 ...

ST Micro's Markus Ekler explains the technology and derives thermal loss equations that can be used to support design decisions for stepper motor driver circuits. One constant trend in the automotive ...

The Arduino Opta micro programmable logic controller (PLC) provides a unique entry point into the automation field. Automation fields like smart homes, process controls, and robotics are project areas ...
