Stepper motor driver circuit?
July 29, 2015 03:03AM
Hi friends, i want run stepper motor with computer interface
I am using in USB 6008 (data acquisition card )from that we can only send digital I/O at 20mA.
But, my application require minimum one kg -cm torque, for that the stepper motor that I am having will draw more than 20mA...(probably 0.5 to 1 A)

and I don't know what exactly the stepper motor driver will do...
Can anyone elaborate the function of stepper motor driver ...?
Can stepper motor driver amplify the current pulses (digital output) to produce required torque?

The stepper driver needs a separate power source connected to VDD and GND pins.
Usually 12V, depending on the driver.
