Modifying a HY-DIV268N stepper motor driver

Drivers from the family HY-DIV268N-xA have these dumb switches that regulate the step. I'd like to use a microcontroller for that. Does anyone know if they can be modified to maybe replace them with ...

DM542 driving Nema17 controlled by a Teensy 4.1, random stepper stalls

I am trying to drive 4 Nema17 stepper motors using 4 DM542 drivers, controlling them using a teensy4.1. The step and direction signal is level shifted to 5V, the DM542 are powered using a separate 48V ...

Translating Stepper motor driver outputs (A-,A+,B-,B+) back into clk,en,step

I have a rather weird problem that makes it necessary to sense the four wires off of a bipolar stepper motor(A-,A+,B-,B+) and translate them back into the pins that controlled the stepper motor driver ...

Want to output data on GPIOs in parallel, what is the delay between each pin?

I have the following setup to control 256 bi-polar stepper motors from a data stream via SPI. I'm deciding between an MCU (teensy 3.6) or an FPGA. Each motor (four wire) is driven by a driver that ...

Isolating digital I/O on an Atmega328

I have an Atmega328P MCU that is driving a stepper motor driver using its digital I/O. However, I'd like to use the same pins to drive the motor externally as well possibly using a different MCU or ...

How to change step pulses into PWM pulse synchronously?

I am driving a stepper motor using microstepping techniques. For the input signals to the driver, step and dir are used. More than 100,000 steps/second speed is target. The PWM frequency is below ...
