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 ...

One constant trend in the automotive world is the push to reduce the size of electronic components and electronic control units (ECUs). While this development has many benefits for car manufacturers ...

Before choosing between a two-phase or five-phase step motor, take a closer look at the application's requirements and the motor's capabilities. More is not always better, but more phases certainly ...

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 ...

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 ...

Stepper motors are commonly seen in two or four phase designs, but Astrosyn International Technology has launched an advanced three phase motor with driver. The three phase layout enables the stepper ...

When it’s time to specify a high-performance motor that offers both precise positioning and cost efficiency, stepper motors offer many advantages over DC motors thanks to their brushless technology.

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 ...
