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 ...

This project uses an Arduino UNO, a joystick module, and an L293DNE motor driver to control a DC motor and a stepper motor. The joystick module allows for manual control of the motors, which can be ...

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 ...

Throw some blinking LEDs on a project and it’s bound to make the front page of Hackaday. We do love builds of a more analog character, though, and this analog gauge stepper motor breakout board seems ...

Stepper motors are a mainstay in precision control systems, valued for their simple open-loop operation and high torque at low speeds. Commonly found in CNC machines, 3D printers, and robotics, they ...

It’s fair to say that building electronic gadgets is easier now than it ever has been in the past. With low-cost modular components, there’s often just a couple dozen lines of code and a few jumper ...

DC motors are widely used in industries to convert electrical energy into mechanical energy. The rotational movement of the motor shaft provides the power required for various applications like ...
