In this article, I talk about STEP/DIR stepper motor drivers, the advantages of using them, and the STEP/DIR control interface.
Lesson 33. Bipolar stepper motor in the Arduino system.
Using the L298N driver, we will connect a bipolar stepper motor to the Arduino board. For control, we will use the programs from the previous lessons for unipolar motors.
Automatic ampoule filling and sealing machine “Borgia” series V20.
It is one of the main and most popular products of the new V20 series of filling equipment.
Lesson 32. An open-loop stepper motor positioning system.
In all the articles on stepper motors, I never tired of repeating that a stepper motor combines an electric drive and a positioning device without feedback. In this lesson, I want to demonstrate the use of a stepper motor in an electric drive positioning system.
Lesson 31. Arduino stepper motor driver with computer control. Communication protocol using AT commands.
In the lesson, we will develop a stepper motor driver with computer control. I will talk about text-based communication protocol using AT commands. We will learn how to control a motor using the Arduino IDE serial port monitor and the top level program StepMotor.
Lesson 30. Text strings in Arduino. Converting data to strings and vice versa. String class.
In the lesson, I will tell you about text strings in Arduino, about the String class, about converting various data types to text strings, and about the reverse operation-converting strings to numbers.
Lesson 29. StepMotor – a library for controlling a stepper motor in the Arduino system. TimerOne library.
In the lesson I talk about my StepMotor library, designed to control unipolar and bipolar stepper motors.
Lesson 28. Unipolar stepper motor in the Arduino system. Stepper library.
With this publication, I begin a series of lessons about stepper motor control in the Arduino system. The first lesson is devoted to connecting unipolar stepper motors to Arduino.
Stepper motors, principle of operation, types, characteristics.
In many of my developments, I use stepper motors. There are branches of precision mechanics in which they are irreplaceable. I will try to explain as simply as possible how the stepper motor operates, what it is.
Lesson 27. Thermocouples in the Arduino system. Arduino thermometer-recorder project for high temperatures.
A series of articles about temperature measurement using Arduino controllers would be incomplete without a story about thermocouples. Moreover, there is nothing else to measure high temperatures.
