The project illustrates the use of a PIC microcontroller in creating the stepper motor controller by sequencing the steps, along the with TIP120 Darlington pairs for the switching circuitry, and a ...

Alan Parekh of Hacked Gadgets has created an industrial-looking clock from wooden gears, a PIC microcontroller, and a scavenged stepper motor. This unique project blends traditional woodworking with ...

[Frank Herrmann] had an interesting idea to turn a geared DC motor into a servo motor assembly, but with a stepper motor-like interface. By stacking some small PCBs behind the motor body, it was ...

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, ...

This chapter, like its predecessor, focuses both in hardware and software related to PIC microcontrollers. In the second part, we made an attempt to blink one LED through a PIC microcontroller ...

Find a downloadable version of this story in pdf format at the end of the story. A new controller IC, the L6470 for stepper motors, integrates the power stage along with a digital control core on a ...
