Able to drive stepper motor from 6V to 20V Single power source operation 5V logic level compatible inputs Bi-directional control Enable/Disable pin for low power consumption mode No heatsink or fan required The Cytron 6-20V, 1A Unipolar / Bipolar Stepper Motor Controller is designed to drive unipolar or bipolar stepper motor, up to 2Amp peak. The board incorporates most of the components for typical stepper motor applications. Stepper motors are famous about machine builders. Most of CNC, 3D printer and servo uses stepper motor due to its stepping and torque properties. But the control is not as easy as DC brush motor where you can simply apply power to it. Stepper motor will require correct sequence of drive to rotate it. With the Cytron 6-20V, 1A Unipolar / Bipolar Stepper Motor Controller, you just need minimum interface, the board is ready to be Plug and Use. Simply add in power and a stepper motor, this driver is ready to drive the motor. The on board test button will help to verify the connection. Pressing the button will drive the stepper motor in a direction with medium speed. Besides accepting the stepper driver conventional control signal (EN, DIR and Pulse), there is an additional control option, UART or serial. With the UART interface, it can be controlled from computer via USB to Serial bridge such as the Cytron USB to UART Converter.
