Microduino-A4982

Microduino-Stepper is a DMOS micro-step drive with a converter and the function of overcurrent protection. It can be used to operate bipolar stepper motors in full, half,1/4,1/8 and 1/16 stepping modes.

Feature

  • Easy to control;
  • Four optional stepping modes:full, 1/2,1/4 and 1/16
  • Perfect protection mechanism:
    • Overheating shutdown circuit, undervoltage lockout, overcurrent protection;
    • Grounding protection, load short-circuit protection;
  • Adopt potentiometer to adjust the current;
  • Automatic current decay mode detection / selection;
  • Compliant with smoke-free fire (NSNF) specification (ET package);
  • Unique set-in method,saving space.

Specifications

  • Support the bipolar stepper motor;
  • Just input a pulse for the "STEP", it will drives the motor to produce micro-step without the need for phase sequence tables, high frequency control lines, or complex interface programming;
  • The maximum output current can be adjusted via potentiometer, resulting in a higher step rate;
  • Four optional stepping modes:
    • full,1/2,1/4 and 1/16;

Electrical Specifications

  • VCC voltage:
    • 3.3~5V
  • VMOT voltage:
    • 6~25V
  • Maximum operating current:
    • 1.4A
  • Under the Low current sleep mode, the current is less than 10uA;
  • Automatic current decay mode detection/selection;
  • Overheating shutdown circuit, undervoltage lockout and overcurrent protection;
  • Grounding and load short-circuit protection;

Eagle PCB File:Microduino-A4982.zip


Main component

Development

Arduino library and support package

Stepper motor wiring

  • Stepper motor connects with Microduino Stepper:
    • Four-wire two-phase stepper motor has two sets of coils a, b, the coil resistance is very small, only several ohms. a and b are totally insulated from the group, not communicating. Measured with a multimeter, connectivity is a set;
    • After measured out, a set of coils connect to OUT1A, OUT1B, another coil connects to OUT2A, OUT2B.
  • By changing the MS1 & MS2 to change the stepping mode (Microduino Stepper default is 1/16 step mode);

Application

Program download

Testing Program:File:Program Test A4982.zip

Stepper Simple Application

  • Connect the Micorduino core module,Microduino A4982 and the stepper motor.
  • Prepared hardware:Microduino FT232R、Microduino Core、Microduino A4982、Four-wire two-phase stepper motor、9V~12V power;
  • Prepared software:Microduino provides testing program(Arduino part)、Arduino IDE(1.0 release upper)、AccelStepper library,
  • Put the downloaded library to the libraries folder of the Arduino IDE installation folder;
  • Strat Ardino IDE, open the testing program, card type chooses “Microduino Core (Atmega328P@16M,5V)”, download directly;
  • Use the pegboard setting up the circuit: (blue line at the bottom),as following picture:
Pegboard wiring diagram
  • Microduino Stepper drives a stepper motor:[ Test_A4982]
    • External 9V or 12V power supply, the motor does not rotate in initialization state;
    • Press the button, the stepper motor begins to rotate as setting speed, and LED indicator lights, reverse rotation after a few laps, the cycle repeated;
    • Press the button again to close the drive, LED indicator lights off. Key detection through an interrupt, turn the switch driver.

FAQ

  • Does this module can drive DB motor?
    • No.
