Goal: Use a joystick to control a stepper motor's speed and direction. The joystick input determines motor rotation speed and direction.

Today, we are going to investigate the TMC2208 stepper motor driver, a commonly used driver module that performs well with 2-phase bipolar stepper motors. The TMC2208 module is manufactured by ...

#define STEPS 32 // Define number of steps per revolution #define IN1 11 // Define pin IN1 from stepper motor as pin11 from Arduino #define IN2 10 // Define pin IN2 from stepper motor as pin10 from ...

Stepper motors use a cogged wheel and electromagnets to rotate the wheel one ‘step’ at a time. Each HIGH pulse sent to the A4988 stepper driver energises the coil, attracting the teeth closest to the ...

Rohm Semiconductor has developed an evaluation kit for motor driver devices which is designed as a ‘shield’ to plug directly into the Arduino open source board. There different versions of the kit for ...

Never one to pass up the recycle pile at work, [Scott] usually doesn’t find much. A few old hard drives, maybe a ancient laptop every once in a while, but on very rare occasions he finds something ...
