Toshiba has launched the TB67S579FTG, a stepper motor driver IC featuring Advanced Microstep Technology. This two-phase, bipolar stepper motor driver employs a constant current control method.

When you think about highly-precise actuators, stepper motors probably aren’t the first device that comes to mind. However, as [Diffraction Limited]’s sub-micron capable micro-manipulator shows, they ...

The project utilizes scavenged stepper motors from disk drives or printers with some probing of an ohmmeter followed by some simple driver code on the microprocessor. The project utilizes scavenged ...

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

Oriental Motor is pleased to introduce our latest driver added to our DC input stepper motor driver line up, the CVD RS-485 Communication type bi-polar drivers. The CVD driver is a compact ...

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 ...

Electronic enthusiasts may be interested to know that a four axis stepper motor driver designed specifically for “creative coders” is now available from the Crowd Supply website. The STEP400 is ...

The Toshiba TC78H670FTG two-phase, bipolar, stepper-motor driver removes the need for any external current-sense resistor by incorporating on-chip current detection. It’s often desirable or even ...

Stepper motors divide a full rotation into hundreds of discrete steps, which makes them ideal to precisely control movements, be it in cars, robots, 3D printers or CNC machines. Most stepper motors ...

Kevin Teresa based in Switzerland has created a new open source stepper motor driver board with 6A / phase and 48V capabilities enabling it to drive a wide variety of stepper motors from NEMA 17 to ...

New motor technology reduces heating effects in the motor, allowing it to run up to 104 °F (40 °C) cooler than the conventional stepper motors. This offers benefits including 100% torque utilization ...

The A4979 flexible microstepping motor driver with built-in translator is designed to operate bipolar stepper motors in full, half, quarter, and sixteenth-step modes, at up to 50 V and 1.5 A. The ...
