Playing the guitar requires speed, strength, and dexterity in both hands. Depending on your mobility level, rocking out with your axe might be impossible unless you could somehow hold down the strings ...

Allegro MicroSystems, LLC revealed a new low voltage bipolar stepper or dual DC motor driver IC. The A3916 device was designed for pulse-width-modulated (PWM) control of low-voltage stepper motors or ...

The new PJE series of bipolar hybrid stepper motors from Nippon Pulse America Inc. are available in sizes from 20 to 86 mm in diameter (NEMA sizes 8 to 34). The motors provide high torque in each of ...

Here's a simple algorithm that uses conventional microcontroller blocks to control commercially available H-bridges to properly commutate a bipolar stepper motor through a microstepping profile.

Allegro MicroSystems, Inc. introduces two new flexible microstepping motor drivers each with a built-in translator for easy operation. Allegro MicroSystems, Inc. introduces two new flexible ...

Even veteran engineers often suffer from a lot of misconceptions about stepper motors and how to drive them. This article will focus on clearing up just a few of these misunderstandings so that ...

The low voltage bipolar stepper or dual DC motor driver IC, has been launched by Allegro MicroSystems. The A3916 device is designed for pulse-width-modulated (PWM) control of low voltage stepper ...

First, we want to explain how such a controller works and what’s involved. A bipolar motor has two windings, and thus four leads. Each winding can carry a positive current, a negative current or no ...

Allegro MicroSystems has unveiled a 40 V motor driver IC capable of driving one stepper motor and one DC motor. The bipolar stepper driver outputs are rated up to 1.6 A and the high current DC driver ...
