SAN DIEGO, June 28 /PRNewswire/ — The new high-performance, high-reliability stepper motor drivers from ROHM Semiconductor offer selectable excitation modes—full-step to sixteenth-step with 1.0A or ...

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 ...

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 ...

Microstepping is a major advancement in step motor technology introduced many years ago that allows motors to make finer steps in movement. By manipulating the current vector, microstepping creates ...

Controls any bipolar stepper motor or actuator up to 2.5A/phase; Manual control knob so that you can move the device at variable speeds; Mounts easily to panel, lab bench, or electronics cabinet; ...

Brushless servo motors are all the hype these days. But stepper motors still provide a number of advantages while being more cost efficient and robust. Together with precision linear and rotary ...

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 ...

Promising high performance and reliability, the company’s stepper motor drivers offer selectable excitation modes: full-step to sixteenth-step with 1A or 2A outputs and full-step to eighth-step with a ...

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 ...
