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 ...

The new motor driver supports both sensor-based and sensorless control while aiding configuration with programmable flash.

A stepper motor controller/driver IC integrates a digital control core which enables a single microcontroller to easily manage several motors, because it only has to issue high-level movement commands ...

This file type includes high-resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. Millions of small electrical devices with built-in motor-driven mechanisms, used daily around the world, rely on ...

Stepper motors are available in several versions and sizes with a variety of operating voltages. The advantage of this general-purpose controller is that is can be used with a wide range of operating ...

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 ...

Thanks to improved capabilities, stepper motors are becoming a popular option for industrial automation applications. Component integration, software macros, and other innovations help simplify ...

The EP7041 EtherCat Motion Box enables stepper motor control in a compact, machine-mountable device, without need for a protective control cabinet. Well-suited for harsh environments, the compact ...

The CMMS-ST single-axis position controller combined with the EMMS-ST stepper motor is designed as a comprehensive, easy-to-use package for single and multiple-axis handling with loads of up to 20kg.

3D scanners aren’t cheap, and the last thing you want to see after purchasing one is bad data. But that’s what [Dave Does] and others were getting from their Revopoint POP scanners until some communal ...
