Motor driver / power supply selection issues
I'm planning on running two identical stepper motors controlled by arduino.
The specs are:
Bipolar RMS current - 3A
Bipolar RMS voltage - 3V
I plan on running them at very low (<60) RPM (the ...

What makes a stepper motor run faster?
I have a stepper connected to a leadscrew, on which is situated a nut somehow connected to a load, along with linear bearings -- so a typical linear-actuation setup. I'm using a commonplace A4988 ...

Driving a 5-Phase / 5-Wire Stepper Motor
I have a penta-drive 5-phase motor with 5 wires that I'm looking to drive with a microcontroller and driver board. I have a driver with 6 H-bridges that I was hoping to use. If this was a 10-wire ...

Multiplexing H-bridge stepper control
I'm in the planning stages of a project where I'll need at least 2 stepper motors. As an added challenge to myself, I'd like to try using just one H-bridge to drive both steppers independently from ...

What could possibly destroy a current limited stepper motor driver?
I was working with STK6714AMK4 connected with arduino to make a stepper move with the change of a potentionmeter resistance (stepper knob).
The motor at first worked well but didn't respond to the ...
