The primary feature of stepper motors is listed right within their name: their ability to ‘step’ forwards and backwards, something which they (ideally) can do perfectly in sync with the input provided ...

Stepper and permanent-magnet synchronous motors increasingly serve control applications that require a high degree of efficiency and outstanding performance. Current technology for motor control ...

FULLER details of the new Westinghouse Electric development of a silicon carbide ransistor capable of operating at above 650 deg.F were given in a paper presented at a mecting in the US of the ...

are well suited for this device. The stepper controller can also run the motor in continuous rotation mode by giving it a large position address.

If you’ve been a good little hacker and have been tearing apart old printers like you’re supposed to, you’ve probably run across more than a few stepper motors. These motors come in a variety of ...

(Nanowerk News) Researchers at Tokyo Institute of Technology (Tokyo Tech) report a unipolar n-type transistor with a world-leading electron mobility performance of up to 7.16 cm2 V-1 s-1. This ...

Stepper motors are impressive little engines that may not be getting the credit they deserve, as they are a relatively important part of our electronic lives. Printers and CNC machines are ...

The 3000's small size (63.6 26.4 mm) makes it a candidate for robots and other industrial control equipment. The controllers can drive unipolar stepper motors in full two-phase, full one-phase, and ...

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 ...
